    Waterfront Station

    Begin at Waterfront Station, one of Vancouver's most iconic transit hubs and a historic landmark in its own right. Housed in a grand early-1900s heritage building on the edge of Gastown, it's the meeting point for the SkyTrain, SeaBus, West Coast Express, and buses — making it the perfect launch pad for exploring the city. With Gastown, Canada Place, and the waterfront all just steps away, it's both a practical starting point and a beautiful piece of Vancouver history.
