Yaletown previously was known as a warehouse district without much to draw people in other than business. During the dotcom boom of the late 90s, Yaletown began to be transformed into the hub of emerging high-tech companies. It quickly became the place to work, live and eat, with restaurants, coffee shops, nightclubs and condos developing at an intense rate! Now Yaletown is a bustling community with fantastic amenities, activities and sights.
Start at Mainland or Hamilton and take a moment to grab lunch or coffee from the many establishments in the area.
Continuing down Davie, you soon come across the Seawall. Originally Stanley Park's Seawall ended at the Burrard Bridge, but now continues through Yaletown to Main Street/Science World. Turning right at the end of Davie, takes you for a walk along the water to Science World - or the 'golf ball' as locals call it - and past that all the way to Granville Island , if you desire a long walk. Or by turning right at the end of Davie, you can saunter along False Creek towards Stanley Park. This is a pretty, easy walk past wonderful parks, waterfront apartments and stores.
