Yaletown Park...977 and 909 Mainland and 928 Homer Vancouver

Why I like and why I bought in Yaletown Park.

Yaletown Park  towers 1,2,3  stand grandly  at the corner of Mainland and Nelson.  The location  of these 3 buildings is perfect. it is close enough to Yaletown to be walk to  in a couple minutes..But far enough away that you don't hear all the happy patrons of the many trendy restaurants, bars and clubs that Yaletown is so well known for..Less that a 10 minute walk to  Robson st.  shopping area. Where you can find great treasures at stores like Louis Vuitton, Tiffany's and Coach, to name a few.

Yaletown Park 1 located at 928 Homer Street consists of 299 suites and 32 floors.

Yaletown Park 2 located at 909 mainland street consists of 309 suites and is 34 floors

Yaletown Park 3 located at 977 mainland was the last tower to be built in this development.  It consists of  270 suites and 30 levels. it overlooks the  name sake "Yaletown Park" and has a Starbucks coffee shop and Reflex healthfood store on the ground floor, facing the park.

About The Park

Yaletown Park was designed as an tendy urban gathering space. The 0.4 acres of public space is paved with granite blocks studded with curving pieces of old granite curbs for informal seating under a canopy of ornamental flowering trees. Screens overgrowing with vines line the border with Nelson Street.

Yaletown Park was created in partnership between the City of Vancouver and  well known developer Bruno Wall (Yaletown Park Condominiums Properties). Wall contributed the property and paid $0.5 million which represents half the park construction cost, with the City paying the balance out of Downtown South development cost levies.

Park design was by landscape architects Durante and Kreuk Ltd. T. Moscone & Bros. Landscaping Ltd. was the general contractor.
