Location

Oxford Estates is located in the Cedar Cove area of Grandview Woodland on the northwest corner of North Garden Drive and Oxford Street. Positioned just one block west of Nanaimo Street, this location offers convenient access to Downtown Vancouver, the Port of Vancouver and major transportation routes.

Cedar Cove has a number of social, cultural and recreational amenities. Pandora Park is a key green space, as are other smaller parks elsewhere in the sub-area, particularly along Wall Street. Dundas Street bisects the sub-area and although it is a busy arterial connector, it has the potential to become a mixed-use node that is the focus of local-serving shops and services for this corner of Grandview-Woodland.
