Hudson's Bay's Vancouver flagship store is a six-storey building in downtown Vancouver.

Located at 674 Granville Street, on the corner of Georgia, the cream terra cotta building with Corinthian columns was built in 1927. The current store was built on the site of another HBC store from 1913. The last additions were made in 1949.

The original HBC store in Vancouver was a small storefront on Cordova between Carrall and Abbott. Another HBC building, the stone-trimmed brick Fur and Liquor Warehouse, was built on the railway side of Water Street during the warehouse construction boom in Gastown of the 1920s.
