When Vancouver Had Soul: Fred Herzog's "Vancouver Colour"

[invisibleairwaves]

Wow. It's pretty amazing to see the city my grandparents settled in. I guess you always have to have tradeoffs...you replace a rougher, "grittier" but more vibrant, neon-lit Vancouver with a safer, cleaner, NIMBY-run cultural wasteland of a city. Maybe I'm just romanticizing.

So if east Vancouver was that much of a mess in the 50's, I can't imagine what Surrey must have been like...
