If you’re looking for a place to live in Vancouver, Hop auf dem neuen Canada Line.

This long-awaited rapid transit service that opened for business diese Woche, linking downtown with the airport and the suburb of Richmond, may open up some new housing options.

Mit stations at Waterfront und in Yaletown, sowohl die Gastown und Yaletown neighborhoods now have much easier access to transit services.

Da die Linie geht nach Süden entlang Cambie Straße, mit Stops an der neuen Olympisches Dorf, Broadway, King Edward, Oakridge, Langara College, und Marine Drive, these neighborhoods, Auch, now have a speedier transit alternative to the No 15 Bus. Und während die Stadt Vancouver is still formulating its long-term development plan for the Cambie corridor, lots of residential development already underway in diesen Bereichen, particularly at the Olympic Village, Broadway, und Oak Ridge, means more choices of places to live.

In Richmond, noch mehr residential construction around the new Canada Line stations ist in den Werken. Laut einer recent article in the Richmond Bewertung:

As soon as engineers marked locations for the (station’s) concrete pillars, high-rises began to sprout up in Richmond’s City Centre.

By mid-2005, when work on the line was just beginning, 35 high-rise towers were already on the books for downtown Richmond. That number continued to swell….

The Canada Line…prompted city planners to revamp the area plan for City Centre. Sie predicts the area’s population to triple in der Größe, von 41,000 residents today to 120,000 over the next century. Die meisten, dass das Wachstum in den nächsten Jahrzehnten sein.

So if you’re looking for a place to live in Vancouver, hop auf der Canada Line. But what the Canada Line corridor looks like today may be very different in the years to come.
