No matter which big city I’ve lived in or visited, there’s always a neighbourhood “find” to be found somewhere amongst the madness.
These images are from a walk in Vancouver’s West End. I love finding tranquility in this richly diverse downtown neighbourhood with countless high rises and commercial businesses.
Vancouver is one of the most densely populated cities in North America after New York City and San Francisco. This is a direct result of urban planning focused on high-rise residential and mixed-use development as opposed to urban sprawl.
The West End epitomizes the city’s entire downtown core: It is family-oriented and gay-friendly, ultra-urban and tree-lined traditional, a beach town and a downtown combined. The best of “all” worlds.
The little coffee shop that’s not Starbucks.
For residents “the neighbourhood” becomes an extension of our personal identity and we’re so lucky to have them. Check out some of the local housing (below). Please don’t make them obsolete.
