The Luxe, based on a European design, is the first major project in the transformation of the area south of Mill Plain Boulevard and east of Broadway, Kassab said at the groundbreaking. “This location is the gateway to the city,” Kassab continued. “We have strategically selected this first-class location for the Luxe Office Suites because it provides ultimate visibility and accessibility to I-5.” The 56,000 square-foot Class A building will offer first floor retail space, four floors of office space, and top floor office and residential space. The building is being erected on the highest ground in downtown Vancouver, with top floors offering unobstructed views of the Columbia River.
