288 West 1st Avenue - Olympic Village, Vancouver West Side
James rises on West 1st Avenue in Olympic Village, a 2012 building with a fitness centre, a sauna, a common rooftop deck, and a meeting room. The False Creek seawall is a short walk away, leading west to Granville Island and around the creek toward Science World, with Hinge Park and the Olympic Village plaza close by. Mount Pleasant's breweries and shops are nearby to the south, and the Main Street-Science World SkyTrain station is within reach. With a rooftop deck and a walkable address, James is a polished choice.

About Olympic Village
Olympic Village lines the south shore of False Creek, a modern, sustainability-minded community built as athlete housing for the 2010 Winter Olympics and now one of the city's most popular waterfront neighbourhoods. Mid-rise residences cluster around the Olympic Village Square plaza and the False Creek seawall, with Hinge Park, Habitat Island, and the Creekside Community Centre giving it a green, family-friendly feel. The seawall is the front yard - a flat walking and cycling path that circles the creek to Granville Island one way and Science World the other - and the area has become a hub for craft breweries, cafes, and restaurants, with more along Main Street just south. The Canada Line's Olympic Village station and the nearby Main Street-Science World station link downtown and the airport.
