Real estate is all about change as well, and here at Virani Real Estate Advisors we take pride in making your transition to a new home as smooth as possible. Already this year we are seeing a rapid pace in the market, with the second-highest January sales on record. "Fundamental economics are driving today's market," said Darcy McLeod, president of the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver.

AMBLESIDE WEST VANCOUVER

Anyone strolling with a cup of coffee down the scalloped seawall from Stanley Park towards Canada Place would pass in front of the village of glass towers and townhouses. They would notice playgrounds, cyclists, grassy parks, an exercise class through the window of the Coal Harbour Community Centre, harbour planes taking off and ship traffic crossing the inlet. They might be surprised to learn that this area, Vancouver's first major experiment in downtown living, was an audacious plan. Up until the late 1980s when the area was owned by the Canadian Pacific Railway and used for railyards and shipping, it was hard to imagine that one day people would want to live there. Coal Harbour, which stretches along Burrard Inlet from Cardero Street to Burrard Street, was a pivotal point in Vancouver's history. The name itself speaks of another time (coal was discovered here in 1862), but the idea of creating a livable community on former industrial lands was totally new. The transformation began with the development of the Canada Place pavilion for Expo 86, a unique structure built to resemble the five sails of a ship.

"Ambleside, a twokilometre stretch along Marine Drive, is known as the downtown of West Vancouver. "

Marathon Developments, the real estate development arm of the Canadian Pacific Railway, planned the 80-acre site with the City of Vancouver, and incorporated many design elements that ensured the area could be enjoyed by residents and visitors. City planners worked hard to protect the waterfront views, creating corridors at the ends of all the north-south streets. Parks and green spaces were also protected throughout the neighbourhood, and other uses including hotel, office, retail, and services were included in the plan. Aiming to create a neighbourhood feel and interest along the street level, planners mixed in an assortment of low-rise townhouses along with the condominium towers.

Coal Harbour, which was built in three phases, proved an immensely popular experiment. The residents who work downtown in the Financial District, along Georgia and Burrard Street, found that they hardly ever needed to use a car. Within walking distance are the shopping areas of Alberni Street (a niche of high-end brands such as Prada, Escada, DeBeers, Burberry, and Louis Vuitton), the department stores Nordstrom and Holt Renfrew, and the retail strip of Robson Street. Restaurants are plenty and close at hand, including Cardero's, an upscale seafood pub which feels like a ship, located in the marina with views of Stanley Park and Burrard Inlet. At the other end of the seawall is the Cactus Club, a West Coast-inspired design which also offers stunning waterfront views. Coal Harbour also offers recreational facilities at the community centre or at the Steve Nash Fitness World. Those who prefer to exercise outside can walk, run or cycle the seawall, all the way around Stanley Park, English Bay, Olympic Village, Granville Island, to Kits Beach. Directly to the east of Coal Harbour is Gastown, which is carving out its own character as a destination for home design stores, local restaurants and pubs, and unique clothing boutiques. Travel throughout the city is easy, with the two skytrain lines starting out at Waterfront Station and the Vancouver airport is an easy 20-minute ride away. Coal Harbour offers all the conveniences of daily life, but with its stunning mountain and waterfront views, mix of old and new architecture, and variety of restaurants, it never feels ordinary.
