Today I walked across town got to see the foyer (or Lobby as they say here) of the Marine Building in Vancouver. The structure has impressive art deco architecture both inside and out.
The lower exterior is currently shrouded in scaffolding but I captured a good shot of the revolving entry doors.
Inside, the lobby has decorative brass elevator doors, depictions of sea flora and fauna and transport of the era. The floor has depictions of zodiac signs and a there's a stained glass window at one end.
The Marine Building has been used on several occasions for film and tv shows like Smallville and Fantastic Four.
I also had a second wonder around the Canada Place and neighbouring Convention Centre for a few extra photos.

Tomorrow is our last day in Vancouver, we fly home late in the evening.
