Victory Square, Vancouver, Public square and war memorial in Downtown Vancouver, Canada
Victory Square spans 0.36 hectares with a granite cenotaph at its center, surrounded by mature maple trees and sloped green lawns.
The space functioned as Government Square in 1886, hosting Vancouver's first courthouse before transforming into a war memorial site in 1924.
The square serves as the central location for Vancouver's annual Remembrance Day ceremonies, drawing thousands of participants to honor fallen soldiers.
The park stands at the intersection of West Hastings Street and Cambie Street, featuring multiple entrances and accessible pathways throughout the grounds.
The maple trees along Pender Street, planted in 1892, remain the oldest surviving street trees in Vancouver's urban landscape.
