TREES CUT DOWN ON GRANVILLE ST

Member	TREES CUT DOWN ON GRANVILLE ST
	_ThePhoenix_ Nightlife Industry (60000posts) 7/14/2006 10:57:00 AM Whats the deal with granville st downtown? Are we allowed to drive there now? i see cars parked along the bus-only sections all day but dont ever see anyone driving along it. That being said, have any of you stood at granville and georgia and looked south along granville? ALL the trees are gone! the trolley wires are GONE. It looks SO empty!

	treble Member (29207posts) 7/14/2006 12:05:00 PM I was walking down Granville the other day and it looks like a fcuking ghostown. I HATE IT. THE TREES ARE GONE!!!
	sageb1 Member (12179posts) 7/14/2006 12:10:00 PM Still, it will be fun when they open the line to Richmond. I saw the access stairs and escalator at Granville Station.

	breaks Member (2345posts) 7/14/2006 3:29:00 PM I will have to admit.... It IS a bit open.
	treble Member (29207posts) 7/14/2006 3:54:00 PM It's looks desolate and bare. IT SUCKS.
	_ThePhoenix_ Nightlife Industry (60000posts) 7/14/2006 4:21:00 PM Yeah!
	ThePhoenix Member (14390posts) 11/23/2009 3:31:00 PM ok, so now that the renovations are done to granville, will they be planting new trees?
	Esta Promo Model (48515posts) 11/23/2009 9:48:00 PM Trees are up on most of Granville ThePhoenix. New trees with roots that grow down not out in an effort to minimize damage to sidewalks and street.
	F_F Member (6623posts) 11/25/2009 11:21:00 AM Last time I was there was about 6 months ago and I couldn't figure out the purpose of those 4 ft black posts lining the sidewalk .... anyone know? only think I could think of was crowd control? but they seemed oddly spread out for that and didn't have the hardware to attach chains?
	avtar_maniac Member (3899posts) 11/25/2009 1:25:00 PM Happy birthday dave
	F_F Member (6623posts) 11/25/2009 3:01:00 PM thanks
	Esta Promo Model (48515posts) 11/26/2009 12:08:00 AM I thought they were for the seating, but now looking at this I am not sure. http://vancouver.ca/comms...an23display/display21.pdf http://vancouver.ca/comms...display/perspectives1.pdf
	F_F Member (6623posts) 11/26/2009 3:43:00 PM not really clear, but regardless, it looks pretty neat
	Bashley Administrator (1404posts) 11/27/2009 8:00:00 AM I heard that they plan to use the posts in order to cover the street for various events. They will basically hold a canopy to tarp over the street. I thought it was a rather retarded idea if you ask me...
	Bashley Administrator (1404posts) 11/27/2009 8:02:00 AM Here is the site on the whole redesign... http://vancouver.ca/comms...anvilleredesign/index.htm Somehow I am betting it will not be completely done by their end of Nov. deadline... still looks like alot is missing...
