Welcome to Alberni by Kengo Kuma!
The Alberni is a luxury high-rise condominium development coming soon to Vancouver’s West End.
Location
Prospective buyers will find the Alberni at the corner of Alberni and Cardero Streets in West End Vancouver. This is a very walkable neighbourhood. Residents can walk to a selection of shops, cafes and restaurants, as well as grocery stores such as Whole Foods and Safeway. They can also walk to the Pacific Centre shopping mall in 16 minutes.

Design
Designed by renowned Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, Alberni is shaped by its environment. The 43-storey tower is carved by two emphatic scoops that form deep balconies furnished in wood. The tower meets the ground with two intersecting domes. Under these arching structures, an extensive moss garden defines the entrance and flows to the swimming pool above.

Alberni houses 188 units over 43 storeys. Units contain 0 to 3 bedrooms, and range in size from from a 817 square foot studio to a 6600+ square foot penthouse. Many units feature Japaneses gardens on their outdoor terraces. Floor-to-ceiling windows open on to city and mountain/ocean views. All units have luxurious fixtures and finishings.
