Kerrisdale - Vancouver tour (100+ pics)

map from wikipedia shows the area where Kerrisdale is



this page gives you info if you want more http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerrisdale

its pretty nice - sort of away from the hustle and bustle though traffic is pretty heavy along the main streets, parts remind me of Vancouver's West End

anyway all pics taken by me August 9 - random order - the streets were quite busy but a rainfall made all the people scurry away















If I recall correctly thuis used to be where an old grocery store used to be situated - replaced with condos and retail much better use of the space











this tree is pretty big

















































don't let the trompe l'oeil fool ya













































this has been empty for years

































newer condos



this house is for sale - probably over $1,000,000 - most houses are well over $1,000,000



















a nice park















something new



looks like an outdoor fireplace























this was considered or planned that the Vancouver - Richmond LRT/Skytrain connection was to run along an existing Train line which runs north to south along the "Arbutus" corridor but it just sits emptydue to the wealthy residents not wanting such a thing in their area - a court ruling has said it can only be used for transit purposes so that condos etc cannot be built on it - perhaps one day a streetcar/LRT whatevere will run along it
