Looks like Vancouver could get some new, more Canadian street names.
A report to be tabled at City Council next week recommends naming the lane east of Cambie Street, between southwest Marine and West 64th, after the Territory. As well as naming the roadway west of Granville, north of West 70th, after the Prairie.
What could soon become Nunavut Lane needed a name because it will be used as access to a new development. Plus, the surrounding streets are already named after parts of Canada.
Same for Saskatchewan Lane. There’s going to be a new development at Granville and 70th, meaning residents need a street name for addresses.
A bit of trivia: the report notes one of the original streets in that area was once named Saskatchewan Avenue.
