A sophisticated downtown home that reflects residents' high-paced, sophisticated lifestyle, refined taste and professional success is being realized in an emerging neighbourhood that delivers a serene retreat surrounded by Vancouver's rousing pulse.
A West Coast-inspired, authentically local building, Monogram by Prima Properties, is a sleek 49-storey mixed-use high-rise, impressive in design and innovation by Merrick Architecture, with a focus on sustainability that enhances the lifestyle and comfort of residents.
Offering an ideal balance of sophisticated elegance, convenience and exclusivity, it will complement buyers with demanding schedules and their propensity for exquisite features. This elevated residence proposes a stylish living space and a solid investment opportunity in a prime location.
Artfully situated in the dynamic and eclectic Burrard Heights neighbourhood, owners will be at the epicentre of connectivity — where Burrard meets Davie — the crossroads of business, culture, entertainment, world-class dining and everyday living.
"It's truly well-positioned and accessible to many key downtown Vancouver landmarks," says Karim Virani, founder of VIRANI Real Estate Advisors. "You can access the Burrard Bridge quickly and get to the business centre, entertainment district, Davie Street or Yaletown with ease."
Unrivalled panoramic views, cosmopolitan location
The discerning address at 1177 Burrard Street, located on the utmost elevated section of the block, affords breaking views of English Bay from the 9th floor. Moreover, wake up to sweeping vistas of the Burrard Inlet and North Shore Mountains serving as consistent inspiration to seize the day.
The highly walkable and bikeable (Monogram has 600 EV-enabled bike stalls) neighbourhood is infused with a myriad of lifestyle-driven amenities: cafes abound for a quick coffee to pair with your favourite podcast en route to work, convenient access to the weekend brunch scene, access to shop at various nearby independent boutiques and upscale shops and ample opportunities to enjoy award-winning cuisine and be immersed in thought-provoking cultural experiences, all within convenient proximity.
"Within a six-block radius, you have more than 250 restaurants and entertainment facilities, including the Vancouver Art Gallery, adjacent to Robson Square," Virani says. "Plus, nature and recreation offerings at Sunset Beach in English Bay, and just three blocks to Stanley Park, the Seawall and the marina."
Building amenities, 49th-floor Summit lounge
Superior resort-like amenities will level up your downtime at the Summit, an imposing 1,860-square-foot rooftop lounge, that is equally perfect for unwinding or entertaining. Soak in the iconic views over a family get together, gather with the special people in your life and celebrate momentous occasions around the fireplace, relax with your significant other over a glass of prosecco and an outdoor movie or enjoy spirited conversations on the sun deck that may evolve into a friendly challenge on the putting green.
"There's so much you can look forward to when you come home," explains Virani. "The spaces allow you to socialize with the community that you're living with. Plus, everybody has access to the best views in the building."
Keep your health and wellness goals in check in the 8th-floor Club Monogram, with a state-of-the-art fitness centre and yoga studio, inviting outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna; business needs are also met with flexible co-working and meeting spaces.
Monogram is also the first residential building in Greater Vancouver to incorporate Smart One Technology powered by TELUS, featuring an easy-to-use wall pad and smartphone app that allows residents to organize their lives with ease, from welcoming visitors at the front door to monitoring and managing suite temperatures and lighting to even receiving security notifications and connecting with neighbours in the community through texts and notifications.
Virani adds, "Residents will be pleasantly surprised by our technology-forward amenities. From booking a rowing machine and getting messages from the concierge to booking the elevator for your guests; it's all user-friendly technology."
Additionally, the building will feature two car wash bays, a dog spa, a city-operated daycare with outdoor play areas, four community-minded retail spaces, office space, a ground-level cafe bistro and a public art plaza; Monogram will be a hub for a Community Arts and Culture Centre managed by the City of Vancouver.
A collection of 260 residences
Monogram's high-quality craftsmanship and accessibility denote value not to be understated. From 470 to 2,000-plus square feet, home options include one-, two- and three-bedroom residences — chic, light and airy — designed with intention by Ste. Marie Design Studio, where style and functionality seamlessly integrate without compromise.
"All homes are tailored to meet the unique needs of different lifestyles," describes Virani.
Stylish kitchen finishings procured by Gastown's Inform Interiors showcase a purposeful backsplash, Gaggenau suite of appliances, versatile storage solutions and customizable shelving system — all aesthetically beautiful and functional to empower home cooks and enhance daily living.
"This entire building is a step forward in the way people live, in technology, modernization and customization," says Virani. "It's not only very friendly — it's fully connected."
