About Marpole, Vancouver, BC
Home to just under 24,000 residents, Marpole is located on the southern edge of Vancouver, British Columbia. This charming neighbourhood is full of quaint shops, restaurants, relaxing nature, and easy access to downtown Vancouver. It is a vibrant and thriving community that Main Street borders on the east, the Fraser River on the south, Granville Street on the west, and Park Drive on the north. Marpole was first considered settled in the 1860s, originally named “Eburne Station,” a tribute to the community’s storekeeper. It was not long before the area became accessible due to the development of the Lulu railway and the BC Electric interurban train.
Marpole possesses so much charm as it is one of Vancouver’s oldest communities. Marpole Park holds a stone cairn and plaque that reminds the residents and visitors of “The Marpole Midden,” evidence of an ancient Musqueam village and burial site. This site was first revealed by construction workers working on the extension of Granville Street in 1889. Many artifacts such as tools and weapons were found that prove the area was once one of North America’s largest village sites.
There are many options for schools in the area, including Laurier Elementary, McKechnie Elementary, Vancouver Hebrew Academy, St. Anthony of Padua School, Sir Winston Churchill Secondary School, Daisy Academy Montessori School, and Glen Eden School. This neighbourhood is highly accessible by Vancouver’s public transportation system. Marpole is close to the Vancouver International Airport and many main SkyTrain and transit terminals that will connect you all over Vancouver.
