I found this 1904 postcard while trolling @vanarchives website. It’s written to a Miss LM Woodrow from Emily. I love the picture of the 2nd CPR station that briefly sat at the foot of Granville & I wanted to know more about these women https://t.co/nYiQBGZNH9 #missingheritage
Last day of #HeritageWeek and we're revisiting East Hastings St when it was the Great White Way. One by one, we've managed to rip nearly all these buildings out. The Pantages/Beacon Theatre, 1932, photo JMABC #missingheritage Story #VancouverExposed: https://t.co/UkNMWDTM7f

Frits Jacobsen arrived in #Vancouver in 1968. He was a prolific artist and captured some of Vancouver’s iconic buildings. He also drew modest residential homes, and a few still exist #everyplacehasastory #missingheritage #vancouverexposed #missingheritage https://t.co/ECcfp7AYEq

@VIAwesome just ran a poll asking what should replace Nordstrom. Most wanted affordable housing (25%) next was a food hall (18%) and third, Ikea (17%). 8% wanted to tear it down. Imagine Granville and Georgia, if we'd just left it be? #missingheritage https://t.co/BsY78f1OdM
This art deco beauty sat near the corner of Lonsdale Avenue and 14th Street #NorthVancouver from 1938 to 1986. Just look what we did with the space! @visitMONOVA #missingheritage #everyplacehasastory: https://t.co/o32bs7vLPg
