Vancouver's (British Columbia, Canada) LGBT community is centered on Davie Village. Commercial Drive has historically acted as a gayborhood for the Vancouver lesbian community. Historically, LGBT people have also gathered in the Chinatown and Gastown neighborhoods. Former establishments include Dino's Turkish Baths, a gay bathhouse on Hastings, and the city's first drag bar, BJ's, on Pender Street.[1]
CBC has said Vancouver is seen as a haven for LGBT people,[2] and Condé Nast Traveler has called Vancouver the most gay-friendly city in Canada.[3]
