Although Coal Harbour is right in downtown and is a relatively young community, it’s a surprisingly calm and upscale little neighbourhood right on the water’s edge. It’s even more surprising given its industrial history as a former shipyard sitting right next to the railway terminus. The city started residential development in this neighbourhood in the 1990’s that takes advantage of a waterfront walkway and its proximity to the Downtown core. The area starts at Canada Place and stretches east to Stanley Park, and is bordered by Burrard Inlet to the north, West Georgia Street to the south.
