The Natural Landscape of Vancouver
Join us as Bruce Macdonald along with Celia Brauer present the natural landscape of Vancouver before the rain-fed streams were filled in, giant trees cut down and shoreline areas reclaimed.
The amazing original landscape of Vancouver is almost entirely gone today, but our city is so young we have an unusually good record of what has been lost. The list includes towering trees to creeks and streams. But some of the original landscape still exists in small patches. Discover more about the city’s natural landscape.
The Vancouver Historical Society is pleased to present this free event at the Museum of Vancouver, Thursday night March 24 at 7:30 p.m. in the Joyce Walley Room.
