There's much to praise about Concord Pacific's newest high-rise coming to Vancouver's Southeast False Creek.

At 17 storeys, Avenue One will provide stunning views of the waterfront, North Shore Mountains, and Hinge Park in the city's most sustainable neighbourhood.

The building's elegant and clean curved lines are designed by award-winning GBL Architects, an international leader in emergent architecture. This combines a keen appreciation for aesthetics with a deep respect for the built environment.

Avenue One's one- and two-bedroom suites and townhomes all feature marble tiles, quartz countertops, and high-end, state-of-the-art appliances and fixtures from industry leaders such as Miele, Kohler, and Grohe.

Yes, this is truly a home that has it all: an automated car wash, a pet grooming room, private water garden on the ground floor, a podium garden on the third floor, a first-class fitness facility, and even Wi-Fi in the amenity areas and lobby.

The porcelain-tiled balcony is fully equipped with outdoor solar shades, wood-look soffit with radiant ceiling heaters and lights, a gas outlet, and a hose bib. This outdoor living room maximizes space with a flex wall and an alfresco sliding door.

But what really sets Avenue One apart is its location on the western edge of the Olympic Village. It's just a seven-minute stroll to the Canada Line's Olympic Village Station and 10 minutes from Main Street-Science World Station.

Residents will be able travel to many parts of the region, including the downtown core to work, while still leaving their cars at home.

Avenue One is also within easy walking distance of Urban Fare, London Drugs, coffee shops, False Creek Community Centre, Science World, and the city's hippest restaurants, such as Bodega on Main and Torofuku.

Did we mention the flavourful Earnest Ice Cream and Mario's Gelati? They're ideal pit stops for any dog walker living around the Olympic Village. Whole Foods, Best Buy, Save-On-Foods, and Canadian Tire are all nearby along Cambie Street.

Cycling paths around False Creek also make it incredibly simple to reach Granville Island's bountiful produce markets, restaurants, and theatre venues to the west. Not far to the northeast are International Village's 12-screen Cineplex Odeon theatre and the T & T Supermarket.

Want to see a Canucks game at Rogers Arena, performing arts at the BMO Theatre Centre, or sample modern Chinese cuisine at Bao Bei? They're all easily accessible from the Olympic Village.

This is also a neighbourhood that values a healthy lifestyle, which is why outdoor recreation retailing kingpin MEC is moving its signature store to Southeast False Creek. It's long been home to the annual Concord Pacific Dragon Boat Festival.

This event is one of many charitable and community initiatives backed by the company, which has been a premier corporate citizen in Vancouver for three decades. Over the years, Concord Pacific has been associated with the CIBC Run for the Cure, B.C. Children's Hospital fundraisers, Vancouver jazz festival, Arts Umbrella, Vancouver Art Gallery, Party for the Planet, YVR for Kids Canucks Place Hospice, helping fire-ravaged Fort McMurray residents, and many other worthy causes.

Concord Pacific cares about Vancouver beyond just building homes and contributing parks, recreational facilities, seawall walkways, daycare facilities, and school sites. It's a trusted builder and a trusted community partner.

Its Avenue One is perfectly situated for those who want to move into a complete and sustainable community that already has all the modern conveniences.

More information is available at avenueone.ca or by visiting the Vancouver Presentation Centre at 88 Pacific Boulevard between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m.
