347 Water St, Vancouver, BC

Situated on the premier 300 block of Water Street, widely regarded as Gastown’s most established and sought-after retail corridor, the property offers exceptional frontage and visibility just steps from the iconic Steam Clock and within immediate proximity to Waterfront Station, Canada Place, and the city’s primary tourism gateway. This highly curated stretch of Water Street is home to a collection of leading local and international brands, including flagship concepts such as The Latest Scoop., Maison Kitsuné, and Oak + Fort, reinforcing its position as Gastown’s dominant retail node. The subject premises, currently occupied by Herschel’s flagship store, benefit from proven functionality for premium retail use and strong brand association within the market. Designed by renowned architect Omer Arbel, the space seamlessly integrates contemporary design within a restored heritage framework, offering expansive glazing, exceptional ceiling heights, and a highly efficient, open-plan layout ideally suited for flagship merchandising and experiential retail concepts. The premises are further complemented by prominent signage exposure, private amenities, and secured underground parking. With limited availability of large-format retail spaces along this tightly held corridor, 347 Water Street represents a rare opportunity to secure a true flagship presence within one of Vancouver’s most character-rich and high-performing retail environments.
