安威尔中心广场综合体

ANVIL CENTRE & MERCHANT SQUARE
安威尔中心广场综合体

Anvil 中心商业广场位于第八街和哥伦比亚街的交叉口，是一个多
功能的市政设施。项目名称的灵感来自于铁砧在新威斯敏斯特历史
上的独特地位，它是工艺和力量的象征，让人回想起这座城市作为
该省最初的工业中心之一的起源。 名为“商业广场”(Merchant
Square) 的9 层A 级塔楼高出市中心高度，整个会场位于三层地
下停车场上部。这个设施包括一个有350 个座位的非舞台剧院，会
议设施和会议空间，专门为艺术而建的多功能厅，一个艺术画廊，
城市的博物馆、档案馆和加拿大曲棍球名人堂。新设施是新威斯敏
斯特的主要振兴计划，也是哥伦比亚空中火车站的主要商点。
Located at the intersection of 8th and Columbia streets, Anvil
Centre and Merchant Square is a multi-use civic facility. The
project’s name was inspired by the anvil’s unique place in
New Westminster’s history as a symbol of craftsmanship
and strength, recalling the city’s proud roots as one of the
province’s original industrial centres. The Class A, 9-storey
tower called Merchant Square, rises above the civic centre
with the entire assembly resting on three levels of underground
parking. This facility includes a 350-seat non-proscenium
theatre, convention facilities and meeting space, purpose-built
and multi-purpose rooms for the arts, an art gallery and a new
home for the City’s Museum and Archives and the Canadian
Lacrosse Hall of Fame. The new facility is a major revitalization
initiative for New Westminster and main anchor point from the
Columbia skytrain station.
