Description

Built in 1898 at the height of the Klondike boom, the heritage value of the Skinner Block lies in its progressive architectural style. This was one of the first buildings in Vancouver to feature the design elements of the Classical Revival style that was becoming increasingly popular in the eastern United States and Canada at the end of the nineteenth century.
