Tattoo Studios in Richmond
Steveston suits a tattoo studio. The village end of the island has a small, established set of shops working out of the older storefronts near Moncton Street, and the maritime history there, cannery work, fishing families, Japanese-Canadian heritage, feeds a steady demand for anchors, waves and script that means something specific to the person wearing it.
The second concentration is in City Centre and along the No. 3 Road corridor, where studios lean toward fine-line, Asian traditional and cover-up work and several artists take bookings months out. Piercing, laser removal and permanent cosmetics are listed in this section too. Portfolios decide this category, so every listing links to the studio's own site where one exists.

Where Locals Actually Eat in Richmond BC
Nothing on Alexandra Road is a hidden gem. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.

Terra Nova Rural Park and the West Dyke Trail
The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.

Steveston Village: A Complete Guide to the Waterfront and Beyond
I live four blocks off Moncton Street, so this is the Steveston I actually use: where to park before the Bayview lots fill, how to buy fish straight off the boats at the wharf, the honest answer to the Pajo's versus Dave's question, and why the history here is not decoration.
