Paradox Vancouver is a 60-storey residential skyscraper and hotel in Downtown Vancouver, designed by Arthur Erickson and completed in 2016. Located at 1151 West Georgia Street, the 188-metre triangular tower exemplifies high-tech architecture through its distinctive twisted form, gradually rotating up to 45 degrees from base to summit and resembling a hyperbolic paraboloid. At 188 metres, it ranks as the second tallest building in Vancouver. Originally opened as the Trump International Hotel and Tower Vancouver, the property closed in 2020 following bankruptcy. After minor renovations and rebranding beginning in late 2021, it reopened under its current name, Paradox Vancouver, in April 2022.
