a city street at night with cars driving on it

Couldn't be a showcase of Vancouver without Granville Street. The only real nightlife strip in "no-fun city" is beautiful at night when all the concert venues light up. Follow me on Instagram for more photos like this: https://www.instagram.com/gavinkrohm/

an old and new street scene in the 1950's and today

A comparison that will make many a Vancouverite cringe or even break down in tears. Where do I even start? On the left in the old picture is the now demolished Birks Building, a fabulous old building that gave way to the current low-rise building that is now a London Drugs.

people are walking down the sidewalk in front of some buildings

https://flic.kr/p/mWXtot | Granville Street, TD Tower under construction, 1970 Al Ingram, City of Vancouver | "Would ou like o lose or gain 14lbs in he next two weeks." Gotta dig the Studio Theatre sign across the street (917-919 Granville Street) which was showing "Blow Up" a very cool film from 1966. And those funky street lamps, just how many times was the lighting & street furniture changed on this street? Mid block pedestrian lights, the trees are gone now.
