Neighbourhood
Sophie Manor is located in the heart of Kitsilano on Vancouver's west side.
A hippie hangout in the 60s, Kits is now home to young urban professionals and families, though the vibe is still pretty relaxed and even mindful—it is the birthplace and headquarters of lululemon athletica, after all!
The neighbourhood is bordered by the waterfront (and beaches!) to the north, W 16th Ave to the south, Burrard St to the east and Alma St to the west. Most of the commercial activity is along W 4th Ave and W Broadway, but you’ll also find shops and restaurants in the areas close to Kits Beach.
Shops on Sophie Manor's block include the renowned Thomas Haas Chocolates, wonderful Kidsbooks and the Michelin-recommended Folke Restaurant, which serves exquisite vegan food. The apartment building is also within a short walking distance to Starbucks and many other fine cafes, restaurants, pubs, boutiques and shops along the W Broadway and W 4th shopping corridor.
Kits Beach and Kits Pool (Vancouver's only saltwater swimming pool) can be found along Cornwall Street, a 20-minute walk, 10-minute cycle or 5-minute drive from Sophie Manor.
