Amenity Inventory Composition

The Downtown Eastside neighbourhood contains 16 mapped amenity points according to OpenStreetMap data. These points are distributed across four distinct categories: Park, DogPark, TransitStop, and Recreation. The total count reflects a partial sample of infrastructure within the defined boundary. Each point represents a specific location rather than a service area or coverage zone.

Transit stops represent the majority of the mapped inventory with 10 locations. Parks account for 2 points, while recreation facilities contribute 3 points. A single dog park completes the set of 16 amenities. This composition highlights the density of public transportation access relative to other facility types in the area. Sources: [Wendy Poole Park]

Specific Facility Locations

Named parks in the neighbourhood include Wendy Poole Park and CRAB Park at Portside. Both are categorized as Park amenities within the direct list. The presence of these two green spaces provides designated outdoor areas for residents. Their specific locations are identified by name but lack detailed coordinate descriptions in the summary.

Recreation facilities include La Boussole Centre Communataire, Downtown Eastside Neighbourhood House, and Downtown Eastside Seniors Centre. These three sites offer community-oriented services distinct from passive park use. The transit stops are located along major streets such as Main St, Hastings St, and Cordova St. This distribution suggests alignment with primary arterial routes in the district.

City market context

From the Vancouver market article, 21 September 2026:

Vancouver recorded a sales-to-new listings ratio of 46% in August 2026, indicating that demand is absorbing new inventory at a steady pace. This metric aligns with 8.5 months of supply, confirming a balanced market where neither buyers nor sellers hold a dominant advantage. The city-level sales-to-new listings ratio of 46% for August 2026 establishes a baseline of market balance, supported by the concurrent 12.3% sales-to-active listings ratio and 8.5 months of supply. These compatible metrics demonstrate that Vancouver's residential market is currently characterized by stable liquidity rather than acute scarcity or oversupply, which influences negotiation dynamics and pricing stability for all property types within the city.
