Lion’s Gate Bridge lies 1,823 meters in length and traverses the borders of West Vancouver and North Vancouver ending at Marine Drive, which is the main business area for West Vancouver real estate. This region of commerce goes along the Burrard Inlet and finds its way to Horseshoe Bay, which is a water-front ferry community found on the western region of West Vancouver. Horseshoe Bay ferries provide a means to get to Langdale, Bowen Island as well as Nanaimo. From this point you could take Highway 99 to traverse north for Whistler, B.C. due to the end of Highway 1, also called the Trans Canada Highway. West Vancouver real estate and Vancouver condos consists primarily of residential property, which allows them to uphold the district’s vision as a reserved and affluent community. Park Royal Shopping Centre, which is reached off of the Lion’s Gate Bridge on Marine Drive remains Canada’s first and West Vancouver’s one mall. There are more than 280 stores and restaurants within Park Royal, which makes it the most prominent shopping plaza on the North Shore. The Shopping Centre is two enclosed malls, which are found on either side of Marine Drive. Whether you wish to go east or west to North Vancouver, or south to Downtown Vancouver real estate, you can select a bus stop on either side of the street. Famous shops and cafes, such as Whole Foods and Starbucks, can be discovered at the newly built outdoor shopping venue, the Village at Park Royal, which is next to the South Mall. One of the most well loved locations to go on the North Shore is Ambleside Beach. The park is quite family oriented offering a vast number of amenities, as well as extensive views of the Lions Gate Bridge, Stanley Park and Downtown Vancouver condos. Ambleside is an excellent place to go any time of the year, whether it is for a romantic date, bringing children to play, walking your dog, or going out on a hot summer day. If you are yearning for a historic nature venue, then you must drive over to the west end of West Vancouver and check out Lighthouse Park. The park is padded with greater than 185-acres worth of foliage, and provides both flat and steep trails to check out, not to mention the lighthouse, which is the park’s landmark. Point Atkinson was one of the original light stations in Canada, and remains the impetus for Lighthouse Park’s name. West Vancouver condos possesses 3 secondary schools and 14 primary and elementary schools found in its jurisdiction. Among those is two private schools, as well as a highly renowned public school district.
