提议在温哥华水边站附近的停车场建一座22层的办公室塔,
A 22-storey office tower inspired by a maple tree has been proposed for a parking lot near Vancouver’s Waterfront Station, featuring stacked, off-center floors that create space for plants and a public plaza.
由James KM Cheng建筑事务所设计,这座126米高的建筑采用混凝土核心,以避免扰动历史车站的地基及下方的西海岸快车轨道。
Designed by James KM Cheng Architects, the 126-meter building would use a concrete core to avoid disturbing the historic station’s foundation and the West Coast Express track below.

The design, which avoids underground parking and could save $50,000 per space, was submitted in November and discussed in a February community open house.
