The Shaw house is located on a narrow waterfront property on the south shore of English Bay.  Views from the site stretch across the bay to encompass the skyline of downtown Vancouver and, beyond, the mountains on the north shore of the bay. The house is organized with living spaces at grade, a music room below, and a single bedroom, study, and lap pool above.  The pool, with terraces at each end, runs along the entire west side of the house.
