North Vancouver Liveability Trends

The most liveable neighbourhoods in North Vancouver are also the areas that are expected to see the most improvement over the next three to five years. “All three areas are redesigning and redeveloping to include more transit hubs, new condominium developments and creating new amenities. Developing the Brewery District is also a focus, as it is an area that was once comprised solely of auto body businesses. It is now home to both those and microbreweries. Work is also being done to improve the already stunning viewscapes in the North Vancouver area”.

Liveability is about quality of life at a local level. A neighbourhood’s dynamism, or lack thereof, involves a delicate convergence between independent small businesses, public institutions, arts and culture, green spaces and housing, to name a few. The COVID-19 tragedy will impact neighbourhood ecosystems differently across the country, just as the virus itself has. Yet, civic/local pride has been proliferating throughout this crisis in inspiring ways, giving Canadians hope that micro-economies, including real estate, have the resilience to be restored in the near and mid-term.
