MODERN West End Living – Redefined Amacon announced the successful opening of Modern, a boutique 17-storey, 118 condo highrise community to be located in Vancouver’s desirable West End. Since opening its doors last weekend, hundreds of people have toured the presentation centre and designer display suite and The Modern has already achieved over 40% sales success. Located at the corner of Harwood and Burrard, Modern is at the intersection of everything you love about the West End. “Modern is the first new tower that’s built west of Burrard and so close to the Seawall in a very long time,” comments Nic Jensen, Sales and Marketing Manager at Amacon. With both natural and built amenities like the seawall, recreation and fitness facilities, beaches and parks at your door, Modern is just steps from everywhere you want to be. “The West End is one of Vancouver’s most cherished neighbourhoods, and homeowners are thrilled with the walkability of Modern’s convenient location, and the livability of the homes.” Modern’s striking design with glass artwall in abstract purples, yellows and blue, sets the tone for this elegant and sophisticated building. Inside, you’ll find simple luxuries such as in-suite air conditioning, polished stone slab countertops, and high-end stainless steel appliances
— in your choice of colour scheme. With prices starting from $349,900, there’s no denying the excellent value. There are 118 residences available. To view floorplans and tour the display suite, visit The Modern presentation centre located at 1305 Burrard Street, open daily noon-6pm (closed Fridays) or visit www.amacon.
