Event Description
Join us for an Architectural Heritage and Human Scale Urbanism Walk in Mount Pleasant, Vancouver's original suburb. Find out about the urban design principles that shaped the evolution of this historic neighbourhood. In addition to visiting landmark buildings such as the 103 year-old Quebec Manor, the Lee Building and the Wenonah Apartments, other points of interest include apartment blocks on Quebec Street, rowhouses on 10th Avenue and heritage homes on Ontario Street. Learn more about streetscape details and urban landscape elements. The tour will conclude at a local coffee shop - please feel free to join us after the walk!
