Structure Details

Sun Towers is a pair of two cosmopolitan-styled residential towers that are marked as Metrotown’s vision for downtown sophistication. The 41-storey focal point of the property features a 6-storey podium and skyward-reaching architectural features that heighten the structure’s profile as one of Burnaby’s tallest skyscrapers. The buildings will have 588 residential units, mixed-use space, and an underground parkade.
