Jack Poole Plaza, Pedestrian plaza at Vancouver Convention Centre, Canada

Jack Poole Plaza extends across 120,000 square feet of waterfront space, featuring wide walkways and connecting directly to Vancouver's extensive seawall network.

The plaza received its name in honor of Jack Poole, who led the Vancouver Organizing Committee that secured the 2010 Winter Olympics for the city.

The Olympic Cauldron stands permanently at the plaza, with its five torches illuminated during national celebrations and special events throughout the year.

The plaza offers direct access to float plane services, multiple dining establishments, and the Tourism Vancouver Visitor Centre across the street.

Local coffee roasters supply LOT185 Café within the plaza, where visitors can taste fresh pastries while observing harbor activities.
