About Chinatown
Chinatown is one of the oldest and largest historic Chinatowns in North America, a designated National Historic Site centred on Pender and Keefer Streets between Carrall Street and Gore Avenue, on the eastern edge of downtown. Its streets mix ornate heritage buildings and family associations with the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden, the Chinese Cultural Centre, traditional grocers and herbalists, and a new generation of restaurants, cafes, and bars. Living here puts you in a walkable, characterful pocket: the shops and dining of Chinatown and neighbouring Gastown are at the doorstep, the downtown core is a short walk west, and BC Place and the False Creek waterfront are nearby to the south. Transit is close - the Stadium-Chinatown SkyTrain station is a few minutes away, with Main Street-Science World station to the southeast.
Framework was completed in 1930; 2016. It saw major improvements in 1959; 2016.
