Also nearby is the main branch of the Burnaby Public Library, surrounded by a beautiful civic square that frequently hosts outdoor events like concerts and movies.
The neighbourhood overlooks beautiful Deer Lake Park, a tranquil urban oasis of walking trails, placid water, art galleries, theatres and the Burnaby Village Museum that recreates Burnaby the way it might have been in the 1920s. Many of the homes in the neighbourhood enjoy peek-a-boo view across the Central Valley to Burnaby Mountain and the North Shore mountains.
