Future home of the new St. Paul’s Hospital

Within walking distance, Lab 29 is located south of the new St. Paul’s Hospital campus, providing convenient access to collaborative opportunities in the life sciences sector. The $2.174 billion hospital project will foster a thriving healthcare community in The False Creek Flats, bringing together thousands of staff, doctors, clinicians and researchers. The project is currently under construction and has an anticipated completion date of 2026.

Future Development of NE False Creek

The False Creek Flats represents the up and coming potential for the area with inventive plans including residential towers, 32 acres of reimagined green space and community spaces such as an ice rink and cultural centre. The City of Vancouver is also reviving Hogan’s Alley which serves as a vital artery to Chinatown, emphasizing the diverse growth that False Creek Flats invokes.

Vancouver Health Precinct

The innovative lab and office space Lab 29 contributes is fundamental to the growing health precinct as approved by the City of Vancouver – striving to build modernity into medicine with purposeful design. Through optimizing high-efficiency infrastructure for life science technology, Lab 29 contributes to this health precinct of the future along with other health companies that work together to facilitate leading-edge research.

Emily Carr University Expansion

The pristine new campus of The Emily Carr University of Art + Design has relocated from Granville Island to The False Creek Flats in land shared with UBC, SFU and BCIT. This move brings together high-tech, visual arts and traditional post-secondary education in one dynamic new spot.
