Went through quite a lot of pages in this thread. I've only lived here for two years but I've seen a fair share of the city. But I never got the opportunity to see the before and after effects. To be honest I've never had that opportunity anywhere. I seem to move cities every 3-4 years. If anyone has any history of the neighborhood between main-cambie/broadway and terminal that would be awesome. I lived in a 120 year old house in that area for awhile and it is clearly visable how much things have changed in that neighborhood. The house is an artist residency now and a gallery.
I also stumbled upon this photographers flickr awhile back. He has a really great, intimate and well shot collection of vancouver from several decades.
