Status: Under Construction / Municipally Approved High-Rise AI Facility | Location: 150 W Georgia St, Vancouver, BC V6B 1W6, Canada
The 150 West Georgia AI Data Center, located at 150 W Georgia St in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, is an upcoming 10-story high-density sovereign artificial intelligence data facility being developed by Telus Communications in partnership with Allied Properties REIT and real estate developer Westbank. The project is planned on the site of the former Creative Energy steam generation plant near BC Place Stadium, representing a significant transformation of an established urban industrial property into advanced digital infrastructure. Designed as a high-rise data center, the facility is intended to provide specialized computing capacity for artificial intelligence, high-performance computing, enterprise applications, and other data-intensive workloads requiring secure and reliable infrastructure. Its development forms part of Telus’s broader multi-site Canadian Sovereign AI network, with the Vancouver facility positioned as a flagship component of the company’s strategy to expand domestically controlled AI computing capabilities. The downtown location provides proximity to Vancouver’s dense telecommunications ecosystem, enterprise customers, technology companies, financial institutions, and major transportation infrastructure. Its integration into the urban core also demonstrates an alternative approach to data center development, using vertical construction to maximize computing capacity on a constrained metropolitan site. The project could support growing demand for AI infrastructure while maintaining close connectivity to businesses and digital users throughout Vancouver and Western Canada. The redevelopment of the former steam plant site further illustrates how established urban infrastructure can be adapted for next-generation technology requirements. Through its partnership between Telus, Allied Properties REIT, and Westbank, the project brings together telecommunications expertise, commercial real estate capabilities, and urban development experience. If completed as planned, 150 West Georgia could become an important sovereign AI infrastructure node in Vancouver and strengthen Canada’s domestic capacity for advanced artificial intelligence computing.
