Yaletown Towers
1241 Homer Street
Rooming houses such as this one offered inexpensive, convenient
lodgings for the many single working men who crowded into Vancouver
in the early 1900s. Completed in 1910, the building was designed
by architect J. Pearson for David McCall, a CPR boilermaker. The
double-entry stair and the wooden cornice and brackets are original,
but the gingerbread curlicues were added when the building was renovated
for office use.
