Customs House - 816 Government Street, Victoria BC Canada V8W 1W9. In Victorias majestic and world renowned inner Harbour, architectural icons hold places of distinction and recognition. The Empress Hotel and the BC Legislature have anchored the Capital Citys inner Harbour for the past century and now Customs House is set to rejoin these famous landmarks as Victorias most prestigious residential address. As the most anticipated new residential offering in the last decade and the most significant addition to Victorias inner Harbour since the lower pedestrian causeway in 1974, Customs House will feature an exclusive offering of just 57 luxury private residences.

The original sandstone exterior, erected in 1898, will be preserved to form the envelope and western most walls that front Wharf street and Courtney Ave. When the existing structure has been removed, only the heritage sandstone faade will remain. Replacing the former building will be a new concrete residential mid-rise that will add three levels of underground parking and 7 storeys of luxury residences. Architect Paul Merricks vision for Customs House ensures that new exterior along Government street will mirror the existing heritage faade creating a seamless transition between old world architecture and modern design.
The same vision and design will be transferred to interior of each residential home at Customs House with large open floor-plans, over heights ceilings and floor - to - ceiling windows to ensure that natural light and views of Victorias Inner Harbour remain unobstructed.
