Located in Vancouver's historic Gastown on Water Street, terminus is a unique blend of historic facades and all new construction with a very modern aesthetic. Incorporated into the shell of the historic Terminus Hotel and Grand Hotel next door, highly efficient urban spaces have emerged through the combined skills of The Salient Group, architects Acton Ostry and design firm, Evoke.

High ceilings - many of them double-height; recessed lighting design, secured, in-building parking; and a very hip roof top urban lounge help make the flats and lofts at Terminus the living end ... and a great beginning. From the distinctive exterior to chic interiors, terminus is for those who place design at the top of their list.

The Salient Group have excelled in creating an adaptive integration of historic elements into modern, highly stylish homes. There are 46 suites in total and 46 separate floor plans ensuring that every home enjoys a unique sense of individuality. From the exclusive linear bathrooms featuring Philippe Starck designed interiors with a soaker tub and rain shower pocketed behind translucent sliding-glass doors and fully-panelled kitchens with top-of-the-line appliances to the geothermal heating, air conditioning and built-in custom storage, terminus guarantees that function and form coincide with sleek, customized, killer designs in Vancouver's oldest and coolest neighbourhood.

Construction finished at the end of 2008 and many homes are now occupied. The few that are left range from 735 - 1620 sq.ft. and consist of 1- and 2-Bedroom Lofts and Flats.

Located in the heart of the emerging Woodwards district of Gastown, the Paris Annex will be a 6-storey building, consisting of 16 modern flats. It is the second phase to the Paris Block development, a 1907 heritage building that is currently being converted into 29 lofts. Once completed, the Paris Block and the Paris Annex will be one building, sharing a residential entry way, elevator and common rooftop deck, but will look distinctly like two different buildings. The Paris Annex, with its very modern glass and concrete design, will provide the perfect juxtaposition to the original Heritage Character of the 1907 Paris Block.

The Paris Annex is being designed by the award-winning Gair Williamson Architects and Evoke International Design. The crisp contemporary materials such as concrete floors, slate and glass tile, integrated kitchen appliances, flush welded stainless steel countertops and sink, and translucent glass, will all combine to give the suites the look and feel of a high-end modern home. Almost all the suites have spacious private outdoor space, overheight ceilings between 10�-14� and floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing for a very light and airy feel.

With sizes ranging from 650 sq.ft. to over 1400 sq.ft., there is quite a variation in suites even though there are only 16 in total. All owners will have direct elevator access to the common rooftop deck, featuring a built-in gas BBQ as well as an outdoor gas fireplace. Another unique feature that all owners will be able to enjoy, is the two co-op cars that will be provided to the building and housed in the ground floor parkade. So although one will have the luxury of living in a walkable urban community, there will still be access to a car whenever needed.

Custom Timber Home located on the Fernie Golf and Country Club golf course with views of Fernie's 'Three Sisters' and 'Ghostrider' mountains.

The Fernie Golf Estates is right on the fairways of the Fernie Golf & Country Club, adjacent to the Elk River with unobstructed views of the mountains and the legendary Fernie Alpine Resort. A quiet community, Fernie Golf Estates is only a short walk to town and a 5-minute drive to the Resort. This community is like no other in the Elk Valley, close to a wide variety of activities yet a world apart incorporating details not found in other area developments - extensive landscaping and dedicated open space, a private road network and pedestrian path system that leads to the Clubhouse and connects to the extensive Fernie hiking/biking trail system.

With sizes ranging from 650 sq.ft. to over 1400 sq.ft., there is quite a variation in suites even though there are only 16 in total.

So although one will have the luxury of living in a walkable urban community, there will still be access to a car whenever needed.

The Building and Landscape Guidelines create a unique 'island' amidst the golf course fairways. Residential landscaping provides visual and acoustic separation between residences extending private interior living areas of each residence onto the surrounding lands. Owners are encouraged to landscape with a mix of vegetation types on their lawns, from shrubs to tall trees creating a seamless fit with the golf course.

As part of Fernie Golf Estates and Fernie Vacation Properties' concern for preserving the natural environment, we build as green and as energy efficient as possible. From Low-E windows to the latest in energy efficient water and heating, our homes are built to provide comfort at a minimal cost to the homeowner and the surrounding environment.

Michael Delich and all at Fernie Vacation Properties share a passion for skiing and mountain living which finds expression in all our company developments. We build mountain homes for today and for many seasons to come.
