British Columbia. Located at the east end of False Creek the village connects with Mount Pleasant, Yaletown, Fraserview, and the beginning of the Cambie corridor and City Centre. It is also 10 minutes from Chinatown, Downtown, Gastown and Stadium District, plus the West End, while Kitsilano and Strathcona are only 15 minutes away. Positioned directly on the seawall and multiple parks Olympic Village encourages an
active and scenic lifestyle that can be enjoyed in all four seasons.
Location and lifestyle are the two main factors that make the Olympic Village one of the most desirable places to live in Vancouver, which makes
it one of the strongest and most active real estate areas to invest in. With a population of approximately 13,000 residents and more developments underway and planned, the opportunity for growth exists now and into the future.
As nearby Mount Pleasant continues to densify and the surrounding block's zoning changes from industrial to mixed-use the already abundant
infrastructure, convenience and lifestyle amenities will multiply, making this an even more desirable area for multiple generations to enjoy
for years to come.
Developed for the 2010 Winter Olympics held in Vancouver and used as the athlete's village and now a global beacon for environmental and
sustainable architecture, the area was once the industrial heart of a city dubbed 'The Big Smoke'. As the city's industrial era faded, the False Creek region was mainly stagnant and dormant until 1986, when Expo brought new awareness and global interest and then the transformation of old warehouses into residential units in Yaletown, was the stage set for the next phase of evolution for this central waterfront neighbourhood.
The opportunity of a blank canvas of land to paint the next chapter in Vancouver's story began and was cemented in historical circumstances.
A dream that became reality continues to unfold year after year, becoming more and more a cultural and entrepreneurial plot.
