VICTORIA EAST

The area is residential aside from Kingsway and the a few shops on Commercial Street, Victoria Dr and E 41st. In terms of real estate, the area consists mostly of detached houses, though Commercial St is a unique little enclave that features low rise condo buildings, and family sized townhouse developments. Commercial St also features a handful of great cafes and shops. Head to Kingsway for all your standard amenities and a ton of restaurants, with lots of great Asian and Indian options. You’ll also find the random but fun Vancouver Alpen Club (a German restaurant and event space in a alpine style building) so there’s something for everyone! Victoria is close to the south end of Trout Lake (and the amazing Trout Lake Community Centre) and Nanaimo Skytrain Station as well.
