Podium Reconfigured The False Creek Flats continues to be defined by its unique geography, industrial character and the presence of rail. These traits help create a rich sense of place, but have also resulted in a lack of public gathering spaces amenities, tree canopy and overall access to nature. The False Creek Flats area is close to downtown and transit, with access to a large and highly-skilled workforce, and direct connections to the port. These advantages, combined with increasing demand for industrial land have made the Flats some of the most expensive industrial land in the region.

wholesaler & distribution cluster in Metro Vancouver. As city grows, the food system in the Flats continues to evolve and become increasingly important for the city. The future relocation of St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital to the False Creek Flats provides a unique opportunity to integrate a largescale healthcare facility into an existing neighborhood. There are opportunities to bring new jobs, health industry businesses and improved amenities to the area. The street infrastructure could also be strengthened to improve emergency access to the site in order to withstand a major disaster.
