Metro Vancouver neighbourhood
The southern half of City Centre, named for the Canada Line's Richmond-Brighouse terminus. Richmond Centre, City Hall and the Minoru sports and aquatic precinct all sit here, backed by tower blocks and older low-rise apartments. Ground-floor retail along No. 3 Road and Granville Avenue keeps it busy on foot from morning to late evening.
Compact flower counter inside the T&T Supermarket at Lansdowne, open late seven days a week. Convenient for grabbing a wrapped bouquet on the way through the mall or picking up flowers along with the week's groceries.
