THE CANADIAN PRESS/Bill Graveland VANCOUVER – English Bay offers a spectacular view, ships anchored in the water, an expansive number of beaches and a surprising amount of art. http://globalnews.ca/news/1512836/beaches-galore-on-vancouvers-english-bay/ Page 1 of 3 Beaches galore on Vancouver’s English Bay | Globalnews.ca 2014-08-18 1:10 PM The 14 larger-than-life laughing bronze statues, self-portraits of a renowned Chinese artist, are hard to miss even with the many other notable distractions near Vancouver’s West End residential neighbourhood. Known as “A-maze-ing Laughter,” the statues, created by Yue Minjun, have been a favourite of locals and visitors since their arrival in 2009. The installation was originally brought in for Vancouver Biennale, a biannual public art exhibition that features sculptures, new media and performance works by celebrated and emerging international artists. “One thing that many people do not know about is the public art offered in English Bay. ‘A-maze-ing Laughter’ has been around for a while and was so popular that it was actually purchased by Chip Wilson, who is the founder of Lululemon, for the city to keep,” said Jorden Hutchison from Tourism Vancouver. “You have 14 bronze statues that are about three metres tall and they all weigh over 250 kilograms.

  • BC Hydro Nelson Park Detailed Public Comment Summary Part 2
    PART II: DETAILED PUBLIC COMMENT SUMMARY PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY Part II: Detailed Public Comment Summary is an appendix to the Public Engagement Summary (Part I) and documents a detailed summary of comments received during the 2019 Nelson Park Public Engagement process undertaken between October 19 and November 25, 2019. Part II also contains all verbatim comments received from survey participants. For a summary of the general findings, please refer to the Public Engagement Summary (Part I). Both documents are available on www.vancouver.ca/nelsonparkrow. BACKGROUND BC Hydro is requesting permission from the Vancouver Park Board for rights‐of‐way to bury five underground power cables through Nelson Park to connect its planned underground West End Substation to the electrical network. Once built, the underground power cables would not be visible from within the park but there are short‐term construction impacts (estimated two months plus time to rebuild the park) and potential long‐term limitations as to what can be placed on top of the underground power cables. BC Hydro and the Vancouver School Board have also requested a right‐of‐way for a driveway access from Bute Street which would have short‐ and long‐term impacts to the park. The Vancouver Park Board is undertaking an independent study to understand potential impacts of BC Hydro’s request on Nelson Park. As part of this study, public engagement was completed to share findings to date and learn about public questions and concerns related to Nelson Park. Public input, along with a technical study, will be brought forward for Vancouver Park Board Commissioners to review as they consider BC Hydro’s request.

  • Introduction
    Introduction “Gay Enclaves Face Prospect of Being Passé.” This was the front- page headline of the October 30, 2007, edition of the New York Times, and the article predicted the demise of San Francisco’s iconic Castro district. The most famous gay neighbor- hood in the United States, like so many others across the country, was (and still is) changing rapidly. The causes are numerous: a dra- matic increase in societal acceptance of homosexuality, ramped- up urban revitalization efforts, an influx of straight people, and casual disclosures by gays and lesbians that they feel safe living pretty much anywhere in the city. “These are wrenching times for San Francisco’s historic gay village,” the writer of the article, Patricia Leigh Brown, sighed, “with population shifts, booming develop- ment, and a waning sense of belonging that is also being felt in gay enclaves across the nation.”1 Such laments, indeed, are not restricted to San Francisco. Kyra Kyles published a front- page story in a Chicago paper the same year entitled “There Goes the Gayborhood,” in which she similarly pre- dicted the fall of Boystown, an affectionate term that locals use to talk about their gay neighborhood: “With more [straight] families moving in and longtime [gay and lesbian] residents moving out, some say Boystown is losing its gay flavor.”2 The people that Kyles interviewed were deeply conflicted about this “culture clash,” as she calls it. “Some residents and activists welcome the gay migration, saying it’s a sign of greater equality, while others say Boystown is losing its identity.” A photograph of one of the rainbow- colored pylons that adorn North Halsted Street and mark it as the city’s main gay artery accompanied her article— but the colors in this haunting image were fading, or perhaps even bleeding away.
