Twenty years ago, Granville Island was transformed from a decrepit 37 acre, industrial slum in Vancouver's False Creek to possibly the most, successful urban redevelopment ever seen in North America. Rusty, tin-sided factories were reborn as a public market, an art school, shops, restaurants, theatres, and a great deal more. Today, Granville Island boasts more than eight million visits a year, 2, 600 jobs and the highest sales per square foot of any public, market on this continent. A chronicle of the Granville Island, story which celebrates what the Island has to offer, and peers inside its seldom-seen inner life. An attractive, interesting and enjoyable volume.
