The West End is Vancouver's most densely populated neighbourhood and one of Canada's great urban villages, situated between Stanley Park and downtown Vancouver along the English Bay shoreline. Defined by its high-rise apartment towers, low-rise character buildings, and tree-lined residential streets, the West End has been a cosmopolitan community since the 1960s and continues to evolve with new condo development. English Bay Beach, Sunset Beach, Denman Street's eclectic dining and retail scene, and immediate proximity to Stanley Park's 1,000 acres of old-growth forest define the West End lifestyle. The neighbourhood is served by multiple bus routes and is walkable to downtown Vancouver, Yaletown, and the Burrard SkyTrain station. West End condos offer a range of price points from entry-level studios to luxury suites, making it Vancouver's premier neighbourhood for walkable urban living at a variety of budgets.
