Vancouver's Centennial (1886-1986) 100 Marker

This seven-foot-tall granite marker is located at the South end of the Granville Street Bridge at West 4th Avenue. It was installed in 1986 to commemorate Vancouver’s centennial year.

1986 was also the year Vancouver hosted Expo 86. Preparations for Expo 86 included building the first line of Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit system called The Expo Line.
