Standing at approximately 650 feet with 61 storeys, Living Shangri‑La is Vancouver’s tallest building in the city proper. It features a distinctive prism-like glass design by architect James K. M. Cheng, emphasizing both aesthetics and function—its façade includes textured panels that conceal ventilation systems while offering a modern, sculptural quality.
This elegant tower integrates multiple uses: floors 1–15 house the 5-star Shangri‑La Hotel, while floors 16 and above are dedicated to luxurious residential units, including live/work condos and high-end estate suites.
