Description
In the heart of False Creek, The Exchange stands as a quiet reminder of Vancouver´s past, thoughtfully reimagined for modern living. Once the city´s telephone exchange in 1911, this heritage landmark offers a refined collection of boutique residences where history is felt in every detail. Inside, a warm industrial palette unfolds exposed brick, polished concrete, & reclaimed Douglas fir beams rising beneath 9´2 ceilings, creating both scale & intimacy. The kitchen, finished in Italian Dada cabinetry with premium appliances, blends seamlessly into the living space, while a spa-inspired bath offers a frameless glass shower & separate tub. Outdoors, a 143 SF terrace extends the home into fresh air. 1 parking & 1 storage included. Above, a rooftop terrace with garden plots, BBQ & lounge (id:63159)

How this is calculated
Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.
Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.
Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.

Financial Summary
Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
