The Vancouver Olympic Village (VVL) is a neighbourhood and Olympic Village built by Millennium Development Group in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, originally built for the 2010 Winter Olympics and 2010 Winter Paralympics.[1]
The site is located on the shoreline at the southeast corner of False Creek, north of First Avenue between Ontario and Columbia Streets.
Boasting over a thousand units, ranging over a million square feet, the Village was able to accommodate over 2,800 athletes, coaches, and officials for the 2010 Winter Olympics.[1][2]
Following the Olympics, the accommodations became residential housing. Today, the Village is a mixed-use community, with approximately 1,100 residential units, area parks, and various retail and service outlets.[3] Southeast False Creek is the neighbourhood development that was built around the Olympic Village and in which the Village now sits at the core of.
