Cathedral Place

Fodor's Review:

One of Vancouver's most attractive postmodern buildings, Cathedral Place is an impressive 23-story tower with a faux-copper roof that mimics that of the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver nearby. The three large sculptures of nurses at the corners of the building are replicas of the statues that adorned the Georgia Medical-Dental Building, the art deco structure that previously occupied this site. Step into the lobby to see another interesting sculpture: Robert Studer's Navigational Device, suspended high up on the north wall.
