A wonderfully eclectic and refreshed heritage neighbourhood.

Mount Pleasant West is one of the city’s fastest changing neighbourhoods with many first-time homeowners, young professionals, and a growing number of young families calling it home. This infusion of youthful energy and community spirit transformed one of Vancouver’s original suburbs into one of its hippest, most vital locales. In the past ten years, a number of small shopping centres, restaurants and grocery stores have sprung up along Cambie and Broadway to serve the new arrivals. And, to feed their minds, elementary and secondary schools, a community college and technical institution are all close at hand.


Schools

The transformation of a residential area cannot be complete without the inclusion or accessibility to educational institutions. The Mount Pleasant West area is well served in this vein.

Fraser Elementary School lies in the heart of Mount Pleasant West. Also easily accessible for the younger children is the nearby Edith Cavell Elementary on West 20th. Older children also have an easy commute to the close-by Sir Charles Tupper Secondary. For those Mount Pleasant West residents looking to reap the benefits of a community college education, there are a myriad of courses offered by the Vancouver Community College.

If the appeal of a private or independent institution is more of what a Mount Pleasant West resident is looking for then St. Patrick Elementary School and Blessed Sacrament are well within driving distance.
