Downtown Eastside Townhomes for Sale in Gastown, Railtown and Strathcona.

Gastown is Vancouver’s oldest neighborhood, yet its historic value is not solely planted in its lamp-lit streets and steam-powered clock. The saloon-like feel that fills the cobblestone walkways, as you explore this part of the city, is something special.

 

A bar district in its own right, this quaint community is steeped with eclectic character and urban charm, packed with rows of vintage dress shops, furniture showrooms, and classic 100 year old homes.

 

Railtown’s industrial-chic lofts have a historic Brooklyn vibe that locals – artists, business owners and entrepreneurs – flock to, with the community becoming a hub for hip restaurants and new shops.

 

Strathcona residents are mainly young families – who have purchased reasonably priced character homes and restored them – and much like its neighboring ‘hoods’ Strathcona has a sense of community that makes you want to be a part of it.
