Downtown South
Entertainment District

In 1991, Council amended Downtown's Official Development Plan for the area known as Downtown South. Located south of Robson Street, east of the West End, and north of Pacific Street and historic Yaletown, this 51 ha (128 ac) area will be transformed into a high-density residential and mixed-use community. By 2020, the area should be home to approximately 11,000 people in 5,600 housing units. Guidelines are in place to provide view protection and ensure a livable, high density neighbourhood for residents.

Granville and Davie Streets are the major retail strips catering to residents and office workers. Strategies are being developed to provide the community with social, recreational and health services. Examples include a community centre, job development support, a mental health drop-in centre, and outreach programs.

Development levies on new projects will help fund services and amenities such as park land, replacement housing, and day care facilities. Council has also approved a unique streetscape plan for the area that will significantly improve the pedestrian environment.
