Any PokemonGo groups out there in New West or surrounding areas? Looking for groups to meet up or add local friends! Post friend links below?

Images taken less than 5 minutes apart. Looking Northeast in Sapperton, likely the fire burning Noeth of Hope. Reminder to stay indoors and get an air filter if you can, and check on those vulnerable in your community.

I grew up in a rural place and I don't know what is considered appropriate and safe for how far my teen child should roam. I want to know from parents who grew up in Metro Vancouver, what is normal? Where is too far? What things to worry about?
Thanks for any input!

A silver Jeep with Arizona plates hit my car on the 300 block of Hospital St this afternoon. They drove off, but a good samaritan witness left a note. If you have any information, please send me a DM. I can provide the NWPD file number. Thank you.

Hey all, looking for a pedicure that does foot care for dry, flakey heels, and also comes with a killer massage? Looking to treat myself and friend to something premium! Who's worth the money?

Got a new camera lens and thought the quay might be a nice place for a walk on a nice night with a nice new camera lens to try out. Hope you folks and folkettes dig them!
Btw what the hell is that noise?!
Jk but there probably is some kind of annoying noise somewhere in the city.

Hi everyone! I’m considering renting an apartment at 335 Carnarvon St (the building with the daycare on the ground floor).
I work from home most days, so I’m wondering:
How’s the noise (daycare,SkyTrain, traffic, etc.)?
How’s the area around Columbia Station in terms of safety?
Any other pros or cons about living in this building?
I’d really appreciate any firsthand feedback. Thanks!

hey y'all. I have a big running workout on Thursday and wanted to use the Mercer Stadium track very early in the morning around 5:00-5:30am. has anyone here used the track during those hours?
Google maps says the track opens at 8:30 while New Westminsters website says the washrooms open at 6:00am. curious if the track opens earlier. appreciate it in advance!

i’m about to start a new job in the quay area and i was wondering if anyone had any parking suggestions.
looking for the most safe/cheapest options as it is likely i could be there late otherwise i would just consider sky-training.
thanks in advance !!!

Hello,
I will be moving to BC for work in Vancouver Downtown. I really like the New West area and think it will be a good commute (since Vancouver is just insanely expensive).
I was wondering if anybody can recommend me some good buildings that are a close walk to the train line.
My budget is around $1900 max for rent. I think studios are def the best with this budget.

We are a 26M/26F couple moving from Montreal to New West. I grew up from Seattle. I have some questions!
- What are your favorite spots? (cafe, butcher, grocer, baker, market, nature spots, etc.)
- How would you describe the vibe of Downtown New West?
- How similar are Seattle and Vancouver?
Thanks for your insights!

Good day, neighbours!
We are a small family that lives near the recent apartment building fire in Brow of the Hill. Through word of mouth, we've heard that the building that burnt down was full of asbestos, and crews with hazmat suits will be demolishing and clearing the building tomorrow. We have a small child and are very worried about asbestos.
Does anyone have any information for the surrounding residents about this process, and what is being done to ensure containment?
Thank you in advance!

Left iPhone with orange case on 112 that left New West Station at about 11:30am on Saturday July 18. I got off at 7th Ave. Long shot but hoping a fabulous New Westie has it or turned it in.

Hi everybody. Any idea where I can dispose of those small green coleman propane tanks for camping? Would a return it depot accept it?

There is also a large mural on the ceiling but I didn’t take a photo of it because there were people sitting under it and I wanted to respect their privacy

Closest place to fix a broken strap on the boot? Looks replaceable, I just dont have the tools.
