A Piece of Champlain Heights History
A letter from former Vancouver Mayor Jack Volrich
Vancouver Saved the Best for Last

A warm welcome to the village of Champlain Heights, the last major part of Vancouver still available for residential development.
Sometimes
being last has its advantages. For one thing, this quiet corner of the
city is just slightly sunnier and slightly drier than any other place
in Vancouver.
More importantly, though, we started here with a clean slate.
So Champlain Heights offered a rare opportunity to create something
different, something better than just another "development".
And
we're taking every advantage of that opportunity. This is Vancouver's
first community to be completely planned by a group which includes
architects, planners, civic officials, and above all, concerned area
residents.
We're still working as a team to build a new kind of community: an environment for people.
Champlain Heights may be your last chance to enjoy a new home in a new community in the city of Vancouver.
It also may be your most exciting chance.
Jack Volrich
Mayor, City of Vancouver
