FALSE CREEK

False Creek is a short inlet in the heart of Vancouver. It separates downtown from the rest of the city. It was named by George Henry Richards during his Hydrographic survey of 1856-63. Science World is located at its eastern end, with the Granville, Cambie, and the Burrard Street bridges crossing False Creek. Originally, false creek was connected to the Burrard inlet on both sides making the area Downtown Vancouver now sits an island. The space in between downtown and East Vancouver was filled in in the late 1800's creating what is now China Town Vancouver and closing False Creek off at its Eastern most location where Science world now sits.
