This first one was shot from a car, like my other Vancouver shots. I like the sign. As we were driving through the area I noticed alot of really cool potential shots, abandoned lots, decrepit building sides, etc. but I never got a chance to get those...will just have to go back someday.

Other signs I liked. I think these were technically in Gastown, the historic/tourist area, but they go well with the other shots.

A gazebo in the Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden.

Alot of stuff was painted red in Chinatown. Maybe that has something to do with the ancient Chinese royal architecture using alot of red? If I remember correctly red was an important color in China, representing the country itself...but I'm on a tangent.
