Features

CHOKLIT takes it name from Choklit Park, located just east of the building on West 7th Avenue. CHOKLIT was the original home of the Purdy's Chocolate Company. Today, this is a quiet neighbourhood in the centre of the Burrard Slopes at the edge of downtown Vancouver. West 7th Avenue is a traffic controlled, cherry tree lined walking street. It is the official bicycle path leading to UBC. The buildings are low, and the mature trees provide shade from the summer sun. The spectacular location affords commanding views of the downtown skyline and North Shore mountains with easy proximity to South Granville shops and restaurants, Granville Island and the Sea Wall - all within walking distance!

A passionate advocate of cultural awareness, and a fervent explorer of human and natural environments, Arthur Erickson's long and diverse list of world renowned buildings include Simon Fraser University, the Museum of Anthropology, the Canadian Chancery in Washington, the Museum of Glass in Seattle and the Waterfall Building - most recently built by Stephen Hynes of Hillside Developments. All share a deep respect for context, and incomparable freshness and grace and dramatic use of space and light, all very much a part of the heritage of CHOKLIT.
