8 W Pender Street
Vancouver, BC V6B

The Sam Kee Building, recognized as the narrowest building in Vancouver's Chinatown, is a remarkable slice of history that has captivated visitors from around the world. Built in 1913, this unique structure boasts a width of only 4.10 feet, yet its efficient design allows for full-sized interiors and an impressive 100 feet of glass frontage.

Home to Jack Chow Insurance since Expo 86, the building has become a popular destination for clients and their families, offering a surprisingly spacious atmosphere despite its slender dimensions. In 2013, it made history by becoming the first Canadian building to win the prestigious international Live Design Award of Excellence.
