Zephyr is a mixed-use rental residential project overlooking English Bay on a site sloping west down towards the waterfront. Retail and a new 50,000 sq ft Safeway store form the base of the project. Emerging from the base are two towers joined in the middle by landscaped terraces and framed by staggered curved balconies, inspired by their location just steps from English Bay. There are 330 homes between both towers, the West tower has 21 floors and the East tower has 23 floors. The design intent was to provide both an intricate and articulated ground level experience while still acknowledging the single purpose use of the anchor tenant. The entrance to Safeway on the east end of the site is punctuated by a giant Z shaped canopy, from which the Safeway signage is suspended.
