Skylines YVR: Overshadowed, never outdone. ||>> My dad used to say of the Marine Building: “... she may be overshadowed, but she’ll never be outdone.” An edifice he’d witnessed under construction & unveiled when he was an adolescent — a boom to bust / rags to riches story that speaks of Vancouver’s cyclical economic nature & wild speculative swings ... Like the ocean, to survive in Vancouver, one needs either very deep pockets, or perseverance to ride the economic tides. It’s really about staying power. How much you can endure. That’s the lesson that this icon & her story teaches us all. Stay the course, & ride out life’s storms. ••• In 1930, the 21-storey Marine Building was developed by Lt. Commander J.W. Hobbs with a Toronto-based brokerage house as a home for The Vancouver Merchants’ Exchange. With its intricate art deco detailing & iconic references to historic ships at sea, the lavish landmark instantly became a civic milestone. Before opening day, Vancouver Sun premiered the ziggurat tiered tower in an 8-page promo-spread as “some great marine crag rising from the sea, clinging with sea flora and fauna, tinted in sea green, flashed with gold….” (borrowed from the architects’ McCartner Nairne). • No expense was spared. Doormen welcomed patrons at its majestic bronze entrance, & women in sailor-themed outfits operated what were among the fastest elevators in N. America. Unsurprisingly, the elaborate project incurred sizable cost overruns. Once complete, the financially-troubled owner offered her, deeply discounted,as a new City Hall. City officials declined. Ireland’s Guinness family snapped her up at a bargain basement price. Today, the Art Deco masterpiece distinguishes itself with timeless elegance in shadow & reflective gleam of Vancouver’s financial district. #marinebuilding • #skylinesyvr • #smallstudiodesign • (at Harbour Air Seaplanes) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGotdjohDBP/?igshid=1smel7vlgq6ad

Shot this yesterday. Sadly not the building I was being paid to shoot, but just loved the angle and look. Hoping to have equal success with the drone photos of the building I was standing on. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #vancouverphotographer #architecture #marinebuilding #vancouver #williamjans #commercialphotographer #drone #rpas #aerial #yvr (at Marine Building) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4iRdK-A-bS/?igshid=12kwvbcin2gh8

One of my favourite heritage buildings in Vancouver is the Marine Building, an Art Deco skyscraper (it was the tallest in Vancouver until 1939) from 1930. There are so many details to admire so expect more photos of the building in the near future. ;) #MarineBuilding #Vancouver #heritagebuilding #instavancouver #igersvancouver #architecture #artdeco #historicalbuilding #1930s (at Marine Building)

Day 5 of Black & White Photography. (I didn't take any pictures today, and my chickpea pasta doesn't look good in black & white, because the sauce consists of ingredients in six colors.) So it's a throwback of a pic I took in August during Travis's and my time in #Vancouver this past August. This is the #MarineBuilding It's one of the #dopest examples of #artdeco #architecure I have ever experienced. It opened in 1930. #blackandwhite #black&white #photo #photography (at Marine Building)
