Vancouver
Overlooking Burrard Inlet, backed by the Coast Mountains is some of the Lower Mainlands best scenery . This area has most everything, alpine wilderness, canyons, rivers, ski facilities and great shopping. North Vancouver was incorporated in 1891 and became a city in 1907. Its waterfront was one of the first on the Lower Mainland to be developed and still remains a very active port area.
The early sawmills of the 1860s are long gone, and the area is now mainly residential and recreational. Both the city and the district are well established areas, with lots of trees and west coast flavoured homes.
