POSITIVE CHANGE TO GASTOWN
In addition to the local enhancements, the City of Vancouver has committed $10 million to the rehabilitation of Water Street, transforming it into a pedestrian-only haven on a trial basis, further elevating the living experience in this historic district. Moreover, the upcoming 600-person entertainment venue in Blood Alley is set to become a new cultural hotspot, contributing to the area’s lively and engaging atmosphere.
For those who have considered Gastown as their future home, now presents a golden opportunity to invest in a piece of Vancouver’s history.
