The Future of Granville Street

Webinar Summary: The new Vancouver municipal council has a vision for Granville Street; a downtown destination that was once the city’s premiere high street, entry to the downtown, and Vancouver’s primary entertainment district. Granville Street has seen a rise in vacant storefronts, safety and public disorder concerns, and an overall lack of cleanliness and excitement. Speakers will address the downtown area with ideas and concepts on revitalization to make it exciting, welcoming, safe, and the premiere downtown destination that it once was, and could be again, further enhanced, while still preserving its valued historic features.
