It’s in Yaletown that you’ll find many of the large glass towers that have become synonymous with the Vancouver skyline. In additional to state-of-the-art living spaces, this contemporary neighborhood is home to modern parks, designer shops, and high-end restaurants and bars that spill out onto the sidewalk. 

Yaletown wasn’t always a landmark for the trendy; it was once a warehouse district and the Western terminus of the Canadian Pacific Railway. But today, many of those red brick buildings have been transformed into unique spaces to house restaurants and stores. The luxury lounge where you sip on a cocktail may have once been a textile factory. 

Like many of Vancouver’s downtown neighborhoods, Yaletown also sits along the renowned Seawall. You can grab a bike or go for a run along this path with picturesque views of the beautiful skyline and False Creek to guide you.
