  • Arbutus Greenway Evaluation
    ARBUTUS GREENWAY EVALUATION 2019 Report to Stakeholders INTRODUCTION Our postal code may be a better predictor of our health than our genetic code. The design of our neighbourhoods influences how we move, feel, and interact, in turn impacting our chances of experiencing poor health outcomes like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Canada has committed to spending more than $180 billion on infrastructure over 12 years. How will these investments impact our health and well-being? Who stands to benefit, and how? The Active Aging Research Team (AART) from the Centre for Hip Health and Mobility is conducting research that aims to characterize the social and health impacts of the Arbutus Greenway development. AART will assess who, what, when, where, why, or why not people in surrounding neighbourhoods (or elsewhere) use the Arbutus Greenway. They seek to understand whether the Arbutus Greenway contributes to peoples’ health and social interactions. AART is also a part of a CIHR funded research team - INTErventions, Research, and Action in Cities Team (INTERACT). INTERACT is a national collaboration of scientists, urban planners, and public health decision-makers with a common vision of healthy, equitable, and sustainable cities by design. In partnership with cities and citizens, we harness big data to deliver timely public health intelligence on the influence of the built environment on health, well-being, and social inequities. Initially launching in four cities across Canada – Victoria, Vancouver, Saskatoon, and Montreal – INTERACT will evaluate the health impact of real world urban form interventions. The Arbutus Greenway is the study focus for the Vancouver site of INTERACT.

External Examiner Department of Geography Simon Fraser University Date Approved: December 6, 1988 TirIe c4 T-4esis,'z~pjfyy/~pff~y?~/jl~p~/ Patterns of Homicide in Vancouver: 1980-1986 Gordon M.B. Coburn ABSTRACT The literature on the urban analysis of homicide occurrence has been dominated by American research largely patterned upon methodology developed by Wolfgang (1958). Subsequent homicide theory development and hypothesis testing, were largley founded upon American experience with American generated data. The current thesis arose with a query whether empirical generalizations and theory development of urban homicide patterns that have developed in the United States could be readily transferred to the Canadian experience. The purpose of this thesis is to fill a void in the literature by the introduction of primary Canadian homicide data from the obse~ed patterns of homicide in Vancouver, British Columbia.

  • CVN Letter to Council – Chinatown – 105 Keefer
    May 19, 2017 City of Vancouver Council Dear Mayor Gregor Robertson and Councillors, Re: Public Hearing for 105 Keefer St. and 544 Columbia St., Chinatown The Coalition of Vancouver Neighbourhoods joins the local community to OPPOSE the above rezoning application. During consultation on this current application, 75% of the community has expressed their opposition. Please reject this proposal. The application has not been significantly changed to address community concerns and is essentially the same proposal that has been repeatedly opposed by the local community since 2014. A few more small tweaks do not make this proposal acceptable. Please listen to the community requests for a much smaller scale project that minimizes the impacts on the Chinese Cultural Centre and the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Garden across the street, with a design that fits into the heritage character of the heart of this historic Chinatown neighbourhood.

The Department of Anthropology and Sociology The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Abstract Architectural housing styles have always been items of interest and comment in Vancouver, but recent times have seen new twists to old concerns. In the 1970s houses on Vancouver's East Side were dubbed 'Vancouver Specials'. These houses were described as 'boxy', Tot huggers' and 'ugly'. However, as the issue was relatively an "East Side problem" it was not highly visible in the media or elsewhere in Vancouver society. When large houses, of similar design to the 'Vancouver Specials', began to be built in Vancouver's more affluent and whiter West Side in the 1980s, debate over 'Monster' houses was born.
