Downtown Van

In October, we brought our members and community partners together for our annual Community Safety Forum, focused on two pressing issues facing our downtown core: repeat offenders and organized crime.

Thank you to our generous sponsors, Cadillac Fairview and Destination Vancouver, for making this important event possible, and to everyone who joined us and contributed to the discussion.

Following this weekend’s provincial election, Downtown Van extends its congratulations to Premier-designate @LDoerkson, Vancouver-Yaletown MLA-elect @Margare7a, and Vancouver-West End MLA-elect @SChandraHerbert.

We look forward to working collaboratively with the new provincial government to advance the priorities of our members, strengthen our downtown economy, and foster a safer, more vibrant, and thriving downtown Vancouver for everyone.

Congratulations to our colleagues at @CadFairview Pacific Centre on the exciting announcement that @Uniqlo_Canada will be expanding its Canadian footprint with a new flagship store in the heart of downtown Vancouver!

Pacific Centre is a cornerstone of downtown Vancouver’s retail landscape, and the arrival of a globally recognized brand like UNIQLO is an exciting addition. These new openings, including the Aritzia flagship store, are exciting investments that further strengthen downtown Vancouver’s position as a premier shopping destination.

Following this weekend’s municipal election, Downtown Van extends its congratulations to Mayor-elect @PtFry and all newly elected and re-elected City Councillors.
