Commercial Drive <3
posted May 21st, 2020 at 10:22 AM
The whole love of commercial drive is wandering on sunny days, wandering into the road way when the sidewalks are so crowded and checking to see if a bike is coming, a slow moving car. looking in a window of a shop that has some impulse purchase that I didn't need but now own. finding the restaurant I was dead set on completely full and it being okay because we can just keep walking and find another new wonderful sunny day hackey sacking brittania library napping type experience....
I don't know the future. Nobody does. I do know that my every loving moment and memory of Vancouver is sunny days, full streets and close proximity turning into busy nights, energetic thumping of music coming from night-clubs, late night kisses on the sea wall before watching the sunrise and doing it all again the next day.

“Busy nights, energetic thumping of music coming from night-clubs.” Vancouver? They roll the streets up at 12 o'clock but I appreciate the sentiment.

Commercial dr. ?
You mean that dried up, tumbleweed street ?
That must have been many, many years ago all hacky sac , fun nights.
You cant even sit anywhere on that
" tourist " street. One bench on the drive.
I've read it in all the tourist mags.
"Go to funky eclectic commercial drive"
That place is quite different now.
Like a cowboy movie. "Dusty ".
Tourists and regular people like to sit every so often. They spend their money and want to sit.. Enjoy a moment!!
Shame real shame.
Coat of paint would be nice too.
Change the whole perspective.
