Gastown Vancouver Entertainment District
Gastown Vancouver BC Historic
Gastown is Vancouver's most historically atmospheric entertainment district β a cobblestone neighborhood where the famous Steam Clock, excellent restaurants, outstanding cocktail bars, and beautifully converted heritage warehouses create Western Canada's finest urban entertainment experience. Gastown's remarkable status as Vancouver's founding neighborhood (the city grew from a saloon opened by John "Gassy Jack" Deighton in 1867) and its extraordinary contemporary creative community create an entertainment district of genuine Canadian Pacific heritage significance.
