GRANVILLE ISLAND

Vancouver - British Columbia - CANADA

Eastern end of False Creek
and Science World



This part of False Creek has also undergone significant changes since the end of Expo86. There are now 5 towers where there were none. Four are residential with additional structures of less height between and around them. One is an office tower serving as the HQ of Van City Credit Union. An interesting feature of this office tower is that it is built over and surrounds the Skytrain elevated tracks. The Main Skytrain station is also a part of this complex. Just to the east accross main Street is Pacific Central Station which is a hub for Via and Amtrak trains as well as all major bus lines into Vancouver.
