Locals don’t visit this historic neighbourhood to see Gassy Jack or take a selfie with the steam clock (at least we hope they don’t). They flock to the numerous cocktail bars and diverse food options all within walking distance. Hop from hot spot to hot spot after a long day at the office and people watch from the patios that line Gastown’s red brick streets.
