THINK CITY TOURS Think City Tours: Sample Description Tour Name: Riots, Homelessness and Baseball This tour takes you from Victory Square to Larwill Park, to Market Alley and in between – drugs, squats, riots and Vancouver's earliest baseball diamond. Rioting, homelessness and baseball are all connected by being located in the earliest of city centres. Public art and commercial signage compete on some of the oldest buildings in town. Vaudeville theatres, opium factories, public library, SRO hotels, restaurants and train stations are all there waiting to be reviewed. Hear the stories and legends behind the facades of early Vancouver when Vancouver went from village to city with the coming of the CPR.
