#10

Yale Hotel

1300 Granville Street

Built in 1890, this is one of Vancouver's oldest surviving buildings. The Colonial Hotel, as it was called, was a rooming house for workers at the CPR yards. Its mansard roof, arched windows and decorative brickwork are distinctive features. Drake Street between here and Pacific Boulevard was the heart of the original Yaletown settlement of CPR workers.
