A Unique <strong>Venue</strong><br />
Located in the False Creek Flats area of beautiful Vancouver, this renovated mid-1950’s<br />

Combining a nostalgic feel with contemporary design, this bright and flexible space includes<br />
an exposed timber and brick interior, large glass windows, 35 foot vaulted ceilings, with metal<br />
beams and drive-in access through three overhead doors. All materials selected reflect the<br />
Canadian Rockies in their colour and texture while the overall design shows a flow, attention to<br />
detail and flexibility in the space so you can create your Event of a Lifetime.<br />
The station caters to large gala and corporate events, charity fundraisers, weddings, concerts,<br />
