About
The Sam Kee Building in Vancouver, Canada, is renowned for being the world's narrowest commercial building, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. Located at 8 West Pender Street in the Chinatown district, the building was constructed in 1913 by the Sam Kee Company, a successful Chinese-Canadian business. The building's narrowest point measures just 4'11" (1.5 meters) wide. Despite its limited width, the structure ingeniously maximizes space with features like a basement that extends under the sidewalk and an upper floor that projects slightly over the street.
