Darby's Corner

Kitsilano. Straight
from the heart.

A timeless Kits tale begins the next chapter.

The story here has real meaning. This is the site of the beloved Darby’s Public House – Darby’s Corner comes to us from the same family that’s stood on this site for 44 years. So it’s tied into the heartbeat of this neighbourhood, and designed for a legacy. You can feel it in every detail of these homes, and the way they speak to these streets. Darby’s Corner comes straight from the heart, and you can feel Kits breathing in this vision.

Kits life levels up.

From sidewalk to rooftop

Darby’s Corner is designed to raise up a new life at 4th and Macdonald. The architecture is warm and distinctive, balancing simple built forms with tasteful contrast. Expansive six-foot balconies frame every residence, creating generous outdoor spaces meant to connect you with the neighbourhood.

This extends to the street level as well. An expansive corner canopy anchors the building, opening the architecture to the streetscape. The liquor store, revitalized for a new chapter, remains on site.

Find your place in Vancouver’s dream neighbourhood

Living here you see the details

That healthy noodle place up the block. True woodfired pizza, just downstairs. The best sushi spots (there are many). Classic, old-school yoga, and future-forward fitness studios. Corner bars, ice cream shops, groceries, shops – truly, everything. And it’s all surrounded by tree-lined residential streets that invite you to breathe, take a beat, walk to the water. From Darby’s Corner, buses whisk you right downtown. And the coming Macdonald Broadway Line Station links up this area to the whole metro region, fast.

Kits is West Coast chic with a very specific feel, and there’s just nothing like it. Darby’s Corner is your base for it all.
