  • Vancouver, B. C
    Vancouver, Canda Lively and Diverse by Nathan Brightbill, Elizabeth Powers Nature Vancouver’s Downtown Central Area (left) includes extensive waterfront greenways and parks at False Creek North and South as well as Coal Harbor and Stan- ley Park in background. Stanley Park is the fi rst park created in Vancouver. Its close downtown proximity and multitude of activi- ties make it a beloved place to visit. (photo: www.seevancou- verbc.com) Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden (below) is an urban oasis in Vancouver’s Chinatown. It is a classical Chi- nese garden run by the Dr. Sun Yat Sen Garden Society of Van- couver. (Photo: Nathan Brightbill). Vancouver is a city of an estimated 560,000 with a robust parks system particularly noted for its large urban open spaces, like Stanley Park, and its attention to greenways and other pedestrian amenities. The total land area is 106.7 square kilometers, exclud- ing Stanley Park which covers 3.9 square kilometers. Other parks, golf courses and open space total 11.9 square kilometers. The city’s Parks Board is unique in Canada because it is an autonomous and separately elected committee, rather than appointed by council. The board was formed during the creation of Stanley Park in 1886 (see Stanley Park: Vancouver’s First Park). Vancouver contains over 200 parks. The Parks Board mission is to “Provide, preserve and advocate for parks and recreation services to benefi t people, communities and the environment.” Parks principals are based on integrity, responsiveness, learning, leadership , inclusiveness, and accountability. Some say Vancouver is a “setting in search of a city.” The parks strategy plays a signifi cant role in maintaining integration between the city and its environment.

Despite having a significantly smaller metropolitan population than the Vancouver area, the Portland area was found to have significantly more bridges (60% more) and significantly more bridge lanes (75% more) crossing the Willamette River than the Vancouver area has crossing the Fraser River. Now, with our current study, “Bridging the Infrastructure Gap,” we have examined bridge infrastructure in four major western Canadian cities (Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Saskatoon) to see how well served these cities are compared to the Vancouver area.
