I just returned from a trip to Vancouver, British Columbia for the International Visual Sociology Association<\/a>‘s annual meeting. While there, I had an opportunity to learn more about Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside<\/a> thanks to Naomi Bartz<\/a>, Kelly Nairn<\/a> and some of my own exploring. The area is the location of a major redevelopment effort<\/a>, particularly in regards to its high number of boarding houses and SRO<\/a>s. If you’re interested in learning more about the area and its housing issues, the City of Vancouver Social Development Department has several interesting reports<\/a>, including this section on the Single Room Accommodation By-law<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Below, the first image is of the neighborhood’s new mixed-income Woodward’s redevelopment<\/a>, complete with its staged photograph<\/a> of the Gastown Riots<\/a>. A few images of the Downtown Eastside SROs (and the clubs on their first floors) follow, after which I’ve included a few of my favorite images from throughout the city. As always, you can view more of my photographs from the trip on flickr<\/a>.<\/p>\n
