The northwest side of Granville Island; Granville Island is a small island and shopping district in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It is located in False Creek directly across from Downtown Vancouver's peninsula, under the south end of the Granville Street Bridge. Granville Island was once an industrial manufacturing area, but is now a major tourist destination, providing amenities such as a public market, a large marina, a hotel, the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design (named in honour of the artist), various theatres including one run by The Arts Club Theatre, and various shopping areas clustered around the one industrial outpost remaining, a cement plant.
