Book Description
A Guide To The Neighborhoods of Metro Vancouver is the second
book in this series and covers neighborhoods outside of the district of
Vancouver. It includes West Vancouver, North Vancouver, Burnaby,
Port Moody, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Pitt Meadow, Maple Ridge,
Langley, South Surrey, Surrey, New Westminster, Delta and Richmond.
Exploring all the neighborhoods in all the districts of Metro Vancouver
takes a lot of time but we have managed to cover some in each district.
In West Vancouver we visit Ambleside Village and Dundarave Village
on Marine Drive before heading out to Horseshoe Bay and finally
Bowen Island.
In North Vancouver we explore Upper and Lower Lonsdale as well as
Deep Cove. In Burnaby we cover the Sunset neighborhood and The
Heights in Hastings East before heading up the mountain to Univercity
at SFU.
In Port Moody we explore Old Towne Port Moody and the new
bustling neighborhood of Newport Village.
Next is Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam, then Pitt Meadows and finally
Maple Ridge where the new civic plaza and ACT Centre for the Arts,
and bandstand have revitalized the downtown area.
Jumping across the new Golden Ears Bridge we arrive at Fort
Langley and Langley City. A hop down towards the US border brings
us to White Rock and Crescent Beach in South Surrey, both two of
Metro Vancouver's oldest summer resort destinations, dating from the
1930s'.
Next we arrive in Delta and the community of Tsawwassen located just
above the Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal and known as the gate way to
Point Roberts, USA. Not far away is the quaint old fishing village of
ladner located on the river.
Richmond is the last district we cover and a visit to the historic fishing
village of Steveston is a must. Lots of heritage sites in and near
Steveston. Number three road is included as it is considered to be
downtown Richmond with all its restaurants and shopping outlets and
now the Canada Line runs the full length of Number three roads'
shopping district. We have also included YVR as a self contained
neighborhood which it certainly is!
The last neighborhood we have included in Richmond is Bridgeport
Road from the Hwy west to Number 5 Road. There are lots of furniture
stores located here as well as other unique businesses.
As well as the neighborhoods we have included heritage articles to try
to relive the by gone days when neighborhoods were so important to
the lives of those living in them, if not more important than they are
today!
