Recreation and Park Infrastructure

The West End maps five recreation facilities, including Gordon Neighbourhood House, Barclay Manor, and West End Ice Rink. These points represent distinct physical locations within the neighbourhood boundary. The count reflects mapped infrastructure rather than program availability or usage rates across the city's broader network.

Four park points are also attributed to the West End, with Barclay Heritage Square being specifically named. These green spaces provide local outdoor areas for residents. The mapping does not establish the size, maintenance status, or specific accessibility features of these individual park locations within the dense urban fabric. Sources: [Park]

Transit and Grocery Access Points

Three transit stop points are mapped in the West End, located at intersections involving Davie Street and Robson Street near Broughton Street. These specific coordinates indicate potential access nodes for public transportation. The data does not confirm route frequencies, service reliability, or the actual travel time to major employment centres from these stops.

One grocery point, Danial Market, is identified within the neighbourhood boundaries. This single mapped location suggests a specific retail anchor for daily necessities. The evidence does not provide details on store size, product range, operating hours, or the competitive landscape of nearby grocery options outside this immediate point. Sources: [Park]

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.
