From street level at the Harbor Centre building in Vancouver you can ride the elevator to The Lookout, a 360 degree observatory high above the city. It’s open all day from about 9 am to 10 pm and your ticket is valid for the whole day, so you can go back for night shots. It costs about $13 per person. The elevator is on the outside of the building which is great for views too.
The building itself is a very distinctive part of the downtown skyline, and there is a revolving restaurant on the floor about the lookout. It’s close to the waterfront so you have great views to the North Shore Mountains, Stanley Park, Canada Place, The Port, and Sea bus. Downtown buildings too, the Dominion Building, Marine Building, BC Place, Science World and more. To the west it’s glimpses of ocean, False Creek, English Bay, Georgia Straight. Guided tours are available, informative displays and there is a small café.
