Waterfront station

October 31st, 2007 — As I go through my files, deleting the out of focus, I come across pictures never published, like this one from 2007 of construction in front of Waterfront station on Cordova Street.

Now and then

January 29th, 2022 — The community garden at the corner of Davie Street and Burrard is now surrounded by a chain link fence with locked gates which means that development is about to happen. The picture below is what the garden looked like in 2010. Developers get a big tax break if their undeveloped land is used for some sort of community activity rather than sitting empty.
