False Creek

The south shore of False Creek has its origins as an industrial park, but today is a highly walkable, mixed-use community of primarily residential housing in the form of apartment buildings. The Telus World of Science anchors the area visually to the east, and the art deco Burrard Street Bridge to the west. Bicycle routes, green spaces, and walkable waterfront make this a popular area for active types, and at the heart of the neighbourhood is the 2010 Olympic Village, a high-density waterfront “village” possessing much in the way of nearby shopping and restaurants, with crystal-clear views of downtown, just across the water. This community is also blessed to include the Granville Island Public Market, a bustling waterfront shopping oasis beloved by tourists and locals alike.
