Little Mountain (Vancouver)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Little Mountain, elev. 127m, is a hilltop in the central part of the city of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It is best-known as the location of Queen Elizabeth Park and Nat Bailey Stadium, but as a name is also used for the surrounding neighbourhood and, occasionally, in the name of electoral districts (e.g. Vancouver-Little Mountain, which is defunct). The "mountain" is an ancient volcanic formation which was at one time mined for its granitic basalts. The old quarry on the "mountain" is now a public garden, popular for wedding photos.
