What people say
- People like:
- Reviewers praise the raised platform, downtown views and short approach walk.
I can’t even wrap into words how much I was stunned about this place. It was a tiny park walk where you would not expect it to be - in the middle of an industrial zone. But, lord, how stunningly beautiful and powerful this place. It is…
Superb raised and hidden viewing platform at the end of the Harbourview Park trail. Takes about a 10-15 minute walk to get here, though it's worth to get a clear shot of the surrounding infrastructure and distant Vancouver.
