This page is going to give you a background history of Strathcona and also new things that have been happening in the environment of the beautiful and unknown neighborhoods. In Vancouver, Strathcona is one of the oldest neighbourhoods that not everyone knows what has happened and what everyone has been through there. Strathcona is bordered by Chinatown to the west, Clark Drive to the east, and Canadian National Railway and Great Northern Railway classification yards to the south. By: V.P.
