Hastings Sunrise

Hastings Sunrise is mainly residential, running from Clark to Boundary Road and from Nanaimo down to the waterfront. About 9,600 people live here, the median age is early forties, and just under six in ten own. Most of what comes up for sale has three bedrooms or more.

The shops and services sit along Hastings Street, on the stretch known as East Village: independent stores, craft breweries, small places to eat. East Cafe at 2401 E Hastings St bakes in-house and carries East Van jam and Okanagan fruit juices. In The Moment Coffee is further east at 3601 E Hastings Street.

Dogs are on-leash there. New Brighton Park has the fully fenced, double-gated off-leash area instead.

Hastings Community Centre sits at 3096 E Hastings St, with an indoor and an outdoor pool, an ice rink and a fitness centre. It's jointly run by the Hastings Community Association and the Vancouver Board of Parks and Recreation.
