Yaletown, False Creek & Vancouver's Urban Design Success

Yaletown (the neighbourhood on the north shore of False Creek in downtown Vancouver — the former Canadian Pacific Railway maintenance yard converted after 1986 into the most successful high-density residential development in the history of Canadian urbanism) and False Creek (the tidal inlet that bisects the south side of the Vancouver downtown peninsula, with the Granville Island Public Market on its north shore and the 2010 Winter Olympics Athletes' Village on its south shore) define Vancouver's reputation as one of the best-planned and most liveable cities in the world.
