Vancouver's waterfront is not boring for many reasons. It is also boring for a number of others. I love it at any time of the day or year. That it is described as boring misses the point in my opinion. Its great as is. It is also more activated than many give it credit (restaurants, pubs, attractions). It just needs more. The city continues to evolve and I think after Covid really subsides, the waterfront will continue to add new dimensions. Hopefully ASAP.

[One of my most favourite seawall experiences was long ago walking along passing beneath Lion's Gate Bridge at about 3 in the dark morning. Lost in thought, barely registering the forest, just listening to the quiet lapping of the ocean against the stonework, I became away of a dull humming. I felt it before i saw it. A freighter was almost silently drifting right past me. A giant black presence just slipping out of the narrows heading to the open sea. Spiritual. Industrial.]
