BulletThe Gastown Steam Clock
More Details Map Save
Although this clock has only been around since 1977 it has very quickly become a focal point in Vancouver, and certainly of the Gastown neighbourhood. Claimed to be the world's first steam powered clock, the steam comes from underground pipes that supply heat to many of the buildings in downtown Vancouver. The clock whistles every 15 minutes and the whistle is a replica of that from a famous B.C. lake steamer the "Naramata". While waiting for the whistle the interior workings of the clock can be observed through glass panels in the sides.
BulletVictory Square Cenotaph
More Details Map Save
Within Victory Square is a towering obelisk that stands 30 feet high. It serves to commemorate those soldiers who gave their lives in war. Made of Nelson Island granite, the cenotaph was erected in 1924 in the spot where the old courthouse once stood and where people would have signed up for the First World War in 1914. Today, it continues to hold five national flags and is the location of Vancouver's Remembrance Day ceremony.
