If you’ve been looking at condos in downtown Vancouver and 8X on the Park keeps appearing on your radar, that’s not a coincidence. This is one of the more distinctive buildings in the Yaletown corridor—and for good reason. Elevated directly above Emery Barnes Park, with a suite mix that’s almost unheard of for a downtown tower, 8X attracts a specific kind of buyer: one who wants genuine square footage, family-oriented floor plans, and a park-front address without giving up the energy of the city. As a Yaletown specialist who has tracked this building since its presale phase, here’s a thorough breakdown of what the data actually says—and what it means if you’re planning to buy or sell here.
About 8X on the Park – The Building at a Glance
Developed by Brenhill Developments and completed in 2021, 8X on the Park rises 35 storeys above the corner of Richards and Helmcken in what the city officially designates as Downtown South—though most residents simply call it New Yaletown. The building holds 200 residences, and what sets it apart from nearly every other downtown Vancouver tower is its unit mix: over 100 of those homes are three-bedroom suites, making it one of the rare high-rises in the core that was genuinely designed with families in mind.
The architect is GBL Architects, whose design responds to three distinct site contexts simultaneously—the Yaletown skyline, the urban street grid, and Emery Barnes Park directly below. The result is a building that feels more layered than a typical rectangular tower, with thoughtful sun-shading and massing that give the building presence from multiple angles. Sustainability was central to the project brief, with LEED Gold certification targeted through geo-exchange heat pumps, thermal glazing, and high-efficiency fan coil units in every home.
Each suite comes standard with features that competitors often call upgrades: expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, private balconies, air conditioning, and integrated smart home electronics. The building amenity package includes a SkyLounge rooftop terrace with barbecues and panoramic views, a fitness centre, a dog washing station, dedicated bike storage with a bike elevator, a water feature, and an off-leash dog area. At grade, the building includes a ground-floor restaurant space, a Montessori school, and a daycare—an almost unheard-of offering in a downtown condo development, and a direct signal that Brenhill was building for a longer-term resident demographic.
The location speaks for itself: Emery Barnes Park is immediately adjacent, the False Creek seawall is minutes on foot, and Yaletown-Roundhouse Station is a short walk away. BC Place, Rogers Arena, the Vancouver Public Library, and the Roundhouse Community Centre are all within comfortable walking distance. Urban Fare and Choices Market cover everyday grocery needs.
The Sales Data: What 85 Transactions Tell Us
Having analyzed every MLS transaction at 8X on the Park since inception—85 completed sales in total, plus 11 current active listings—several clear patterns emerge. This is the kind of building-specific data that most buyers and sellers simply don’t have access to, and it changes how you approach a decision here significantly.
Overall Sales Metrics
- Total sold (all time): 85 transactions
- Overall average sold price: $1,853,933
- Overall median sold price: $1,859,900
- Average price per square foot: $1,475/sqft
- Average days on market: 43 days
- Sale-to-list price ratio: 98.4% (median 99.4%)
That sale-to-list ratio deserves a moment of attention. At nearly dollar-for-dollar asking across the full sale history, 8X on the Park sellers have consistently been able to price with confidence. In fact, the most recent sale in the dataset—unit 2209 in April 2026—sold $125,000 over asking, achieving a 107.8% SP/LP ratio. That result is worth noting for both buyers calibrating offers and sellers setting strategy.
Performance by Suite Type
Because the building has such a distinct unit mix, breaking down the numbers by bedroom count tells the real story:
| Suite Type | Sales (all-time) | Avg Sold Price | Avg $/sqft | Avg Size |
| Studio / Jr. 1-bed | 2 | $604,000 | $1,297/sqft | 466 sqft |
| 1 Bedroom | 24 | $823,107 | $1,388/sqft | 593 sqft |
| 2 Bedroom | 5 | $1,625,918 | $1,580/sqft | 1,028 sqft |
| 3 Bedroom | 54 | $2,379,485 | $1,510/sqft | 1,558 sqft |
Three-bedroom suites dominate the sales history—54 of 85 total transactions—which reflects the building’s design intent. Notably, the two-bedroom category commands the highest price-per-square-foot at $1,580/sqft, which suggests these layouts are in short supply relative to demand. If you own one of the building’s relatively rare two-bedroom homes, that’s a meaningful pricing advantage in a competitive listing scenario.
Furthermore, three-bedroom suite sizes vary considerably, from approximately 1,173 sqft all the way to 3,374 sqft for the larger penthouse-tier floor plans. That range means buyers shopping for a three-bedroom at 8X should understand that not all units are equivalent—floor level, orientation, and layout generation make a material difference in both livability and resale trajectory.
Year-by-Year Sales Trends
Tracking the building’s performance over time reveals several distinct market phases:
| Year | Units Sold | Avg Sold Price | Avg DOM |
| 2016 | 10 | $2,279,920 | 51 days |
| 2017 | 4 | $2,787,400 | 75 days |
| 2021 | 20 | $1,432,362 | 59 days |
| 2022 | 12 | $1,785,458 | 30 days |
| 2023 | 22 | $2,000,859 | 32 days |
| 2024 | 6 | $1,572,833 | 16 days |
| 2025 | 10 | $1,838,190 | 50 days |
| 2026 | 1* | $1,725,000 | 9 days |
*2026 data through April 2026 only.
A few things stand out here. The 2016–2017 presale-era transactions reflect developer pricing for larger floor plans during a hot pre-completion market. The 2021 completion-year figures are lower in part because smaller suites (studios and one-beds) represented a higher share of that year’s transactions as the building changed hands following completion. By 2022 and particularly 2023, prices climbed meaningfully as the building matured and larger suites traded more actively. The 2024 dip largely reflects the broader downtown Vancouver market softening, while 2025 showed a recovery, and the 2026 data point—a nine-day DOM with a sale over asking—suggests the building is showing resilience heading into the second half of the year.
The Top Sales
The top five transactions at 8X provide useful context for what premium floor plans can achieve here:
- Unit 3401 – 3,374 sqft penthouse-tier | Sold June 2025 for $6,150,000 ($1,823/sqft)
- Unit 3402 – 3,116 sqft | Sold August 2023 for $5,600,000 ($1,797/sqft)
- Unit 2007 – 2,041 sqft | Sold November 2016 for $3,595,000 ($1,761/sqft)
- Unit 1808 – 1,905 sqft | Sold May 2017 for $3,295,000 ($1,730/sqft)
- Unit 2805 – 1,781 sqft | Sold September 2018 for $3,139,900 ($1,763/sqft)
What’s striking about this list is the $/sqft consistency at the top of the market. Whether the sale happened in 2016 or 2025, the premium floor plans at 8X have consistently achieved $1,730–$1,823/sqft. That kind of price floor at the high end signals real asset durability for the building’s larger homes.
The Last 10 Sales at 8X on the Park
All-time averages are useful context, but what the market is doing right now is what actually matters to buyers writing offers and sellers setting list prices. The table below covers the ten most recent completed sales at 8X, spanning April 2025 through April 2026—the period that carries the most weight in any current pricing conversation.
| Unit | Beds | Size (sqft) | List Price | Sold Price | $/sqft | DOM | Sold Date |
| 2209 | 3 | 1,292 | $1,599,900 | $1,725,000 | $1,335 | 9 | Apr 22, 2026 |
| 1706 | 1 | 616 | $699,999 | $685,000 | $1,112 | 94 | Oct 6, 2025 |
| 1901 | 1 | 629 | $829,000 | $815,000 | $1,296 | 67 | Sep 16, 2025 |
| 2510 | 3 | 1,285 | $1,559,900 | $1,559,900 | $1,214 | 51 | Aug 23, 2025 |
| 3302 | 3 | 1,484 | $2,151,800 | $2,050,000 | $1,381 | 48 | Aug 3, 2025 |
| 1206 | 1 | 489 | $598,000 | $675,000 | $1,380 | 15 | Jul 30, 2025 |
| 2001 | 1 | 629 | $850,000 | $825,000 | $1,312 | 70 | Jun 10, 2025 |
| 3401 | 3 | 3,374 | $6,480,000 | $6,150,000 | $1,823 | 35 | Jun 9, 2025 |
| 3203 | 3 | 1,348 | $1,998,000 | $1,930,000 | $1,432 | 27 | May 25, 2025 |
| 2803 | 3 | 1,356 | $2,125,000 | $2,000,000 | $1,475 | 68 | Apr 21, 2025 |
A few things jump out of this data immediately. First, the April 2026 sale of unit 2209 closed $125,100 over asking in just nine days—a signal that well-priced three-bedroom suites still attract competitive interest when positioned correctly. Second, the one-bedroom sales in this period show a meaningful spread: unit 1206 sold for $675,000 (over asking, 15 days), while unit 1706 sat 94 days before closing below list at $685,000. Same building, similar size, very different outcomes—driven almost entirely by pricing strategy and presentation timing. Third, the range of three-bedroom $/sqft in this window runs from $1,214 to $1,823, which underscores why applying a blanket price assumption to any floor plan at 8X leads buyers and sellers astray. Floor, orientation, layout generation, and finishing level all factor in.

The Current Market: What’s Active Right Now
As of June 2026, there are 11 active listings at 8X on the Park. Here’s how they break down:
| Unit | Beds | Size (sqft) | List Price | Days on Market |
| 2701 | 1 | 632 | $849,000 | 15 |
| 2002 | 2 | 969 | $1,499,900 | 33 |
| 3306 | 2 | 1,730 | $2,188,000 | 18 |
| 2109 | 3 | 1,292 | $1,729,000 | 12 |
| 1909 | 3 | 1,293 | $1,738,000 | 84 |
| 2807 | 3 | 1,266 | $1,599,900 | 259 |
| 1910 | 3 | 1,276 | $1,700,000 | 371 |
| 2703 | 3 | 1,376 | $1,990,000 | 134 |
| 2504 | 3 | 1,346 | $2,099,900 | 141 |
| 2208 | 3 | 1,900 | $2,800,000 | 237 |
| 3202 | 3 | 1,452 | $2,989,000 | 48 |
The spread in days on market is telling. Several three-bedroom listings have sat well past the 90-day mark, while the recent three-bedroom sale in April 2026 closed in nine days at above asking. That contrast reinforces what building-specific data consistently shows: price positioning relative to recent comparables, not simply relative to other active listings, determines how quickly a suite moves at 8X. Sellers who price based on aged competition rather than recent sales are the ones accumulating DOM.
Maintenance Fees: What to Expect
Maintenance fees at 8X are consistent with what a newer concrete tower with this amenity package typically carries:
- 1-bedroom suites: approximately $335/month average
- 2-bedroom suites: approximately $531/month average
- 3-bedroom suites: approximately $880/month average
These figures reflect the building’s relative youth—8X was strata’d in 2021, meaning the CRF is still in its early growth phase. Buyers should always review the depreciation report and contingency reserve fund status as part of their due diligence, regardless of how new a building is.
Parking and Storage
Of the 85 sold units, the majority came with parking: 43 sold with two stalls, 22 with one stall, and seven with three stalls. Nine sold without parking. Lockers came with the unit in approximately 87% of sales. For buyers who require parking, this building generally delivers—though for the compact one-bedroom floor plans, parking inclusion varies by unit.
What Buyers Should Know About 8X
If you’re considering buying at 8X on the Park, there are several things worth understanding before you start making offers.
Floor level matters considerably. At 35 storeys with park and water exposures on multiple sides, the view differential between a lower floor and a higher one is significant. Historically, units at the 27th floor and above have achieved the strongest $/sqft results in their respective plan types. That said, buyers willing to consider a mid-floor unit with a park-facing orientation can sometimes find value that upper-floor buyers overlook.
The three-bedroom market is competitive and nuanced. With over 100 three-bedroom homes in the building, you’d think comparison shopping would be straightforward. In practice, the floor plan variation across three-bedroom layouts is substantial—some are more compact at 1,173 sqft, while others exceed 1,900 sqft with distinct bedroom separation. Understanding which generation of floor plan you’re evaluating, and how comparable sales reflect plan-to-plan differences, is essential to making a confident offer.
Watch the current active inventory carefully. With 11 active listings at press time and the broader downtown market still working through elevated supply, buyers have more leverage in certain price ranges than they’ve had in years. However, the April 2026 sale at 107.8% of asking price is a reminder that well-priced, well-presented suites still generate competition. The opportunity is specifically in the listings that have accumulated days on market—those sellers tend to be more motivated.
Budget for strata fees and factor them into your mortgage math. At $880/month on average for a three-bedroom, strata fees are a meaningful carrying cost. That said, given the building is purpose-built with modern mechanical systems and a LEED Gold design, the fee structure is appropriate for what you’re getting.
What Sellers Should Know About 8X
If you own a suite at 8X and you’re wondering whether now is the right time to sell, the data provides a cleaner answer than the general market noise suggests.
Pricing off recent sales—not current competition—is the single most important decision you’ll make. The active listing inventory at 8X currently includes units that have been sitting for over a year. Pricing your suite relative to those stale listings almost guarantees similar results. The suites that sell quickly at 8X price based on what the market has actually paid in the last 90 days, not what comparable sellers are hoping to receive.
Two-bedroom owners are in an especially strong position. With only five two-bedroom sales in the entire MLS history and a price-per-square-foot average of $1,580/sqft—the highest of any floor plan type in the building—owners of these rarer layouts have real scarcity on their side. If you own a two-bedroom at 8X, the market for well-priced, well-presented product in your category is thin, and motivated buyers know it.
Presentation and marketing reach matter more in this price range. A suite listed at $1.7M–$2.5M is being evaluated by buyers who are considering multiple options across downtown Vancouver. Professional photography, video, and a clear digital presence across the right platforms determines who sees your listing—and how quickly they make a decision. In a building where the difference between a 9-day sale and a 371-day listing is often just positioning and presentation, this is not a place to cut corners.
The timing window is relevant. The most recent sale at 8X closed in nine days at above asking, and the 2025 top sale—a 3,374 sqft penthouse-tier home—achieved $6,150,000. Those results indicate the building holds real value at the high end. If you’ve been waiting for a signal that motivated, qualified buyers still exist for premium product in downtown Vancouver, the 2025–2026 data at 8X provides it.
8X on the Park vs. the Broader Yaletown Market
It’s worth placing 8X in context relative to the Yaletown condo market overall. Yaletown’s heritage loft buildings—Yaletown 939, Yale, Hamilton Lofts, and others—have a very different buyer profile and pricing dynamic driven by concrete loft construction, high ceilings, and unique floor-through layouts. 8X, by contrast, is a purpose-built luxury high-rise with modern mechanical systems, air conditioning, and new-construction finishes that the loft buildings simply can’t replicate.
As a result, 8X competes less with the Yaletown loft stock and more with buildings like Patina at 1028 Barclay, One Burrard Place, and the upper-tier suites at The Mark. Buyers comparing across these buildings should factor in the park adjacency, family-oriented floor plans, and the rare “over 1,500 sqft in downtown Vancouver” proposition that 8X delivers at its three-bedroom tier—because there aren’t many buildings in the core where that’s actually available at a comparable quality level.

In 2025, a three-bedroom suite at unit 3203 was listed and sold for $1,930,000 in 27 days.

If you are thinking about buying or selling at 8X on the Park, that kind of building-specific knowledge and active buyer network is exactly what shapes a better outcome.
