Скачать или смотреть State of Downtown Vancouver (w/ Jane Talbot, CEO of Downtown Van)

“Downtown Vancouver is a unique place!” says Jane Talbot, CEO of Downtown Van. “It’s literally surrounded by water, home to just over 140,000 people, 8,000 businesses and 1,000 storefront businesses, 130,000 people working, the centre of tourist activity, a world of culinary delights and on and on.,” It’s a vibrant and dense place.

In Downtown Van’s recently-published “State of Downtown 2025,” it is clear there are shifts underway. Office vacancies have fluctuated and sit at about 12% unoccupied; local visits into the city are down; retail visits on Granville and Robson Streets are up, but down on Alberni and West Hastings.

“It’s important to recognize that Downtown Vancouver is a remarkable jurisdiction,” says Talbot, “and at Downtown Van, we continually advocate and innovate to ensure it remains vibrant and resilient.”

We invited Jane Talbot, the CEO of Downtown Van, to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the state of downtown Vancouver now and into the future.
