Vancouver (and New Westminster): day and night

Some final shots from last weekend's trip to BC. We stayed at the Terminal City Tower Hotel. My raging cold kept me from really taking advantage of the health club amenities, but it was a good stay nonetheless. After all, it's a lovely city - rain or shine, day or night.

So...

...views from our hotel room of Hastings Street and of the water...

...and of Hastings Street at night.

We were out in the suburb of New Westminster on consecutive days. On the first of these, we snapped a couple of shots of bridges east of downtown:

We're assuming that this is a set of Chihuly pieces gracing the plaza of a residential highrise just north of Robson Street. Gorgeous, to say the least!

Peter, those are gorgeous lights and colours in the window!

I wonder what the monthly fees are on that condo....the insurance on the Chihuly's alone would make it just ridiculous!

Peter said...

Good point on the insurance. We didn't look at any properties in that part of town, though - many of the units are way too, um, efficient.

Efficient - meaning extra tiny?
