About Pigeon Park

Pigeon Park is a small public plaza at 399 Carrall Street in Vancouver, British Columbia, a short walk from Gastown and Chinatown. It is an open, outdoor corner where city life passes by, and it makes an easy stop when you explore the oldest part of the city on foot.

Tips for your visit

  • Plan on 10 to 15 minutes here. It is a compact outdoor space, so it works best as one stop on a longer walk.
  • Visit in daylight, when the surrounding streets are busy and it is easiest to look around and take in the neighbourhood.
  • Treat it as a shared public space used by local people, and be considerate when taking photos.
  • Pair it with a wander through nearby Gastown and Chinatown, both within walking distance.
