West End commercial streets

The West End Community Plan (10 MB) identified three distinct, memorable, and vibrant villages that help knit the West End community together:

  • Davie Village
  • Denman Village
  • Robson Village

In line with the Community Plan, we are focusing investment on these West End commercial streets, as well as smaller opportunities along lower Robson and lower Davie.

What's happeningDavie Village: space for people

We have produced the design for Davie Street, between Burrard and Jervis Streets. The design aims to create more space for strolling, meeting, and spending time.

These changes can support local businesses, residents, and visitors and contribute to making Davie Village a space for people.

Strengthening West End commercial streets

The West End Community Plan identified Davie, Robson, and Denman villages as distinct destinations that, together with Granville Street, make up the West Loop. These projects build on learnings from temporary changes made during the COVID-19 pandemic. They focus now on permanent upgrades that make it easier to walk, create better spaces for people, and support local businesses.
