The City of North Vancouver's vision is to be a vibrant, diverse and highly liveable community that strives to balance the social, economic and environmental needs of our community.
Born and shaped by our rich history, diverse culture and natural environment, we are a community with a long-term vision for the future and brimming potential. Our residents and businesses make us unique and we take pride in being a welcoming host, inspiring example and inviting home to people of all ages, backgrounds and interests. |

History
The City of North Vancouver is as rich in history as it is in beauty. The land the city now sits on has been a traditional gathering place for First Nations for thousands of years and an early settlement of European settlers in the region. From logging to shipbuilding, North Vancouver has seen a great deal of change over the last 200 years.
There is a new North Vancouver Museum underway right now and should be complete by 2019 but in the meantime the North Vancouver Museum and Archives have set up some excellent on line exhibits to check out.
