Everyone wants to live in Vancouver – and it’s easy to see why.

In this city you can gaze at the beautiful bright blue mountains that become brilliantly snow-capped in the winter. You can walk along the sandy beaches that stretch great lengths, and you can frequent trendy restaurants, too. But that’s just the beginning of a very long list of breathtaking experiences.

When you live in Vancouver you want to experience that post-card worthy view when you look out your window. But the only problem is that many homes make you feel cramped with little freedom.

And that’s why stylish microsuites are popping up.

Yes, it’s true, and it’s not a paradox. Soon you’ll be able to get microsuites that feel like a two-bedroom condo. And if you’re looking for something a little more traditional, you can choose from a variety of spacious one, two, and three-bedroom homes – at least if you look to the new Second + Main development.

Spearheaded by Create Properties and Northchild Developments, these marvelous condos feel spacious, no matter which one you choose. What’s also amazing is that Second + Main will adjoin tall new buildings across East 2nd Avenue and along Mainstreet in South East False Creek.

To open your eyes up to the new Second + Main complex, we’ve compiled a list of all the things you’ll be able to enjoy by living there.

Modular aspect
