It stood at the corner of Richards and Dunsmuir for more than a century
The old Dunsmuir House, which stood at the corner of Richards and Dunsmuir streets in Vancouver's downtown for more than 115 years, has been demolished.
In December 2024 it was determined by city staff that it needed to be demolished as it was a "danger to public safety," with nothing saved. The City of Vancouver expressed frustration that the historic building owned by Holborn Properties would have to be destroyed. "Property owners have a responsibility to maintain their buildings, and allowing a property to fall into disrepair and become a hazard to public safety is unacceptable."
