Vancouver's St. Paul's Hospital land sold to Concord Pacific for $1 billion – Vancouver Sun

Because St. Paul’s is not a designated heritage site, Concord Pacific has no obligation to keep the current structure, but Webb says the historic nature of the building will require some sort of response.
“I imagine that through the process of working with the city and the heritage group within the city, we’ll ensure that the heritage element is accommodated for sure,” he said.
The current hospital was constructed in 1912-13 at a reported cost of $400,000. Over the years, it has grown with the addition of two wings and a pair of 10-storey towers.

NDP MLA Spencer Chandra-Herbert lamented the loss of St. Paul’s Hospital from the heart of his West End constituency.
“St. Paul’s has helped so many people I know. So many constituents work there. It’s part of the fabric of the West End,” Chandra-Herbert said Wednesday.
He has concerns around access to the new False Creek hospital site for the many seniors and others who live in the West End and will have to travel further for appointments.
However, Pike said the century-old hospital, which was already showing its age before COVID-19 arrived, has proven to be a difficult workplace during the pandemic.
“Things like outbreak control and the ability to socially distance — even within stairwells — is very challenging in the current hospital,” he said. “So, the new hospital will address those things very well.”
Pike says construction could begin at the new hospital site by the end of this year or in early 2021.
