The West End community is what makes English Bay such a great small-town-in-a-big-city! Visit the West End, Barclay House, or Coal Harbour Community Centres; explore some of the many West End personal webpages under "Free Links," or get involved with the West End Senior's Network, the Stanley Park Ecological Society, the West End Residents' Association, or one of the many other special-interest activities.

The Roedde House Museum

Surrounded by the gracious gardens of the Barclay Heritage Square, the Roedde House Museum recaptures the elegance of old Vancouver. Built in 1893, it has been fully restored and refurnished to interpret family life in the late Victorian era. Come for Sunday Tea, live classical music, or other public programs.
