About Main Street

Main Street is the spine of Vancouver's hippest shopping and dining strip, running through the East Side from East Broadway south to around East 33rd Avenue. The "SoMa" (South Main) stretch and the Mount Pleasant blocks above it are packed with independent boutiques, vintage stores, coffee roasters, craft breweries, and acclaimed restaurants, set among character homes and low-rise apartments. Riley Park, Hillcrest Centre, Nat Bailey Stadium, and Queen Elizabeth Park anchor the southern end, with the Main Street Farmers Market a local fixture. It's flat and bike-friendly, with the Main Street-Science World SkyTrain station to the north and frequent transit along Main and Broadway linking the whole city. Main Street suits anyone who wants an independent, walkable, food-and-shopping-focused neighbourhood with parks close and downtown a short ride away.
