780 East Cordova Street

Overview:

This 2-story brick building and adjacent parking lot is located on the corner of Cordova Street and Hawks Avenue in Strathcona. Built in 1974, this eye catching structure stands in one of the oldest and most vibrant neighbourhoods in Vancouver. The area boasts stunning views of the North Shore Mountains and quick access to downtown Vancouver. Current tenants Makerlabs are one of the many innovative businesses in Strathcona, and offer tools and workshops to locals for anything from woodworking to jewelry design. They have transformed the building into “makerspace” where locals can drop in, use equipment, learn skills and see their ideas come to life.
