Built on the last remaining large tract of undeveloped waterfront land near downtown Vancouver, Southeast False Creek is the site of the Vancouver Olympic Village during the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
After the 2010 Winter Games, Southeast False Creek will eventually become home to 16,000 people. It will have 250 affordable housing units in its first phase, a 45,000 square foot community centre, three child care centres, an elementary school, community garden, public plaza, and much more. |

The Cambie Street Bridge is a six-lane bi-symmetric precast varying depth post tension box girder bridge spanning False Creek in Vancouver, British Columbia. The Cambie bridge is the easternmost of False Creek's fixed crossings; the Burrard and Granville bridges are a little more than a kilometer to the west, and the new Canada Line SkyTrain tunnel is built just west of the Cambie bridge. |

Looking East from Vancouver's Cambie Bridge you can see the Eastern portion of False Creek. Molson Indy Vancouver, Rio Tinto Dragonboat Festival, Taiwanese Festival and many more have a home here. TELUS World of Science, formerly Science World, is the centre piece. Peeking to the left you can see the Harbour Centre Lookout. City Hall is to the right. The glass enclosure is the Edgewater Casino, but also known as the former BC Pavillion site during Expo '86. From the ashes of the CART Track, the 2010 Winter Olympic Athelete's village has risen. A little to the right is the peaceful community of Mt. Pleasant, how much longer will this view be available? |
