Walter Gage Overview

Leading the High-rise life

Gage is an energetic place to be. Filled mostly with a fun-loving crowd of upper-year undergraduates, Gage offers a combination of independence and sociability, while giving you enough privacy and quiet to get down to some serious studying. If you're ready for a more independent lifestyle, including cooking (and yes, cleaning), Gage's three 17-storey towers await - many spectacular views of the campus, Vancouver, and Georgia Strait. Tucked in behind the towers are a small number of studio and one-bedroom units. Gage is conveniently located beside the amenities of the Student Union Building, the Student Recreation Centre, pools and the bus loop.
