Maxine’s Hideaway  is renovated historic building. It was demolished and replaced with The Alexandra, a 21-storey rental and condo tower (completed 2014). However, its distinctive facade was retained and incorporated into the ground level commercial space.

In 1940, Lort expanded the building by adding a two-storey eastern section with a curvilinear parapet, curved "Baroque" gable, and mission bell. The picturesque facade represents a style rarely seen in Vancouver.

Notable elements in the building's front included the three Gothic arches at ground level, round-arched windows and main entry, metal tile parapet, and metal tile roof overhangs with exposed rafters.

Holly Lodge  was designed in the Second Renaissance Revival style by Wright, Rushforth and Cahill and constructed in 1910-1911. A building permit for April 1910 lists its value as $100,000. The owner was Pacific Investment Corp. Ltd.

This building clearly illustrates the high density to which West End apartments were built during the Edwardian era. It features a superior use of metal bays, and inset angled windows.
