We only recently realized how great this seawall is now that hooks up with the Stanley Park Seawall and goes all the way to the new Convention Centre and the Cruise Ship terminal. I'm not entirely sure when it was finished but I did pick up a draft proposal for the area that had the date 2002. What was not really that long ago...commercial, railway, parking lots and really not very accessible to the public is now the seawall with large bike and pedestrian walkways, parks, restaurants, and condos. This is so prime and what we really enjoy is seeing the mountains which we don't get that much of in our view on English Bay.
Victoria really needs to do something similar with their wonderful foreshore that is mainly taken up with parking lots at the moment.
We have great access as we park in our resident's only parking on Robson and walk down Denman past Georgia and we're there in minutes. We noticed a bicycle rental offering electric bikes so we think we'll do that one day and go round Stanley Park Seawall. We're curious to see what these bikes are like.
Great waterpark for kids...especially good for kids who don't have access to running through a sprinkler.
Coal Harbour Park.
You can see the cruise ships and the convention centre.
Very wide area for pedestrians and bikers.
Some cool houseboats amongst all the yachts.
