Bauhinia & Avila are twin towers connected by townhomes, commercial units and common courtyard gardens. Known as tower 1 and 2 of the Waterfront Place, the towers were the first buildings to be constructed in Coal Harbour by ASPAC Development. Inspired by their waterfront location, the glass, zinc and stone building exteriors reflect the ever-changing hues of their aquamarine setting. The steely grey of the zinc cladding recalls the rugged grey of the North Shore mountains, while the greenish glass reflects the harbour. Excellent amenities include a racquetball court, indoor pool, and a library.
