Broadway public realm
The City of Vancouver is exploring how to create more places to play, relax, socialize and feel more connected to nature in Kitsilano, Fairview and Mount Pleasant.
The Broadway public realm plan will identify what public open space and street improvements will best support the area and its future growth. It includes public open spaces on City-owned streets and properties and privately owned public spaces (POPS), such as office plazas. This work will also create a streetscape plan. The streetscape plan will guide the transformation of the Broadway Corridor into a “Great Street.”
This is part of the City's work to implement the Broadway Plan. The Broadway Plan is an area plan that guides growth around the Broadway subway over the next 30 years. It was approved by Council in June 2022. The City is now seeking input on three projects related to Broadway Plan implementation: the Broadway public realm and streetscape plan, a plan for the future of the City Hall campus and the Broadway Plan review.
