Jericho Beach Park
Vancouver, BC
Jericho Beach Park is one of Vancouver’s most active and lively waterfronts. Known for its sandy beaches, people come to the park to learn to sail, picnic, play beach volleyball, and enjoy the waterfront festivals and large open spaces.
Based on the public feedback, workshops, and design options, the long term plan removes the wharf, restores the natural beach, improves beach access, re-uses original railings, acknowledges RCAF history, enhances habitat while expanding flexible usable park spaces.
