Historia de Granville Island Public Market

Granville Island began as a sandbar in False Creek, and a 1915 reclamation project dredged about 760,000 cubic metres of fill to create a 14-hectare industrial island. Sawmills, machine shops and shipyards worked there for decades before decline set in.

Granville Island passed to federal management in 1972 through Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, and governments invested CAD 24.7 million there between 1973 and 1982 to convert the site to mixed use. In 1979, federal and provincial governments turned a 50,000-square-foot building into the Public Market, a year-round venue for farmers and food vendors.

Granville Island Public Market anchors an island that now also holds the Emily Carr University of Art and Design (added 1980), Granville Island Brewing (established 1984), theatres and studios. Stalls such as Lee's Donuts, A La Mode Pies, Tony's Fish and Oyster Cafe and Old Country Pierogi are long-running names cited in visitor guides.

Normas y etiqueta en Granville Island Public Market

Granville Island Public Market is a working food market, so most stalls take card or contactless payment, and vendors may not split small orders at busy times. Ask before photographing a stallholder or their display, and do not sample products without an offer.

Granville Island Public Market's aisles are narrow at midday, so large backpacks, wide strollers and rolling bags are a nuisance to other shoppers. Seagulls and crows take food from open trays on the waterfront seating, so eat inside or keep hold of your plate. Dogs are generally not allowed inside the market building.

Granville Island Public Market suits standard restaurant tipping norms only at sit-down venues, where 15-20 percent is expected in British Columbia. Counter service and market stalls do not require a tip. Keep bags zipped in crowded aisles, since pickpocketing is a risk in any dense visitor area.
