West End
About Area
The West End is the western most community on Vancouver’s downtown peninsula, bordered by Stanley Park and English Bay. With Davie & Denman as community thoroughfares, here you’ll have access to groceries, international eateries, fitness and retail all just a short walk up from the beach. Come summer, people flock to English Bay from all over the city for seawall fitness, community events, street performing, and family swimming. Characterized mostly by long term rentals, the West End retains a wonderful community spirit for adults and seniors alike with the largest senior’s outreach network in the city. Built mostly in the 1970’s, there is a select Real Estate market in the West End with a variation of mid-rise apartments and multi-family heritage homes. The old growth Oaks of the streets lead you into Stanley Park, Vancouver’s crown jewel. A perfect place for the active resident with tennis, swimming, cycling and the beach at your fingertips.
