Commercial Drive is a roadway in the city of Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada, that extends from Powell Street at its northern extremity, near the waterfront, south through the heart of the Grandview–Woodland neighbourhood to the Victoria Diversion near Trout Lake. The neighbourhood is so dominated by the businesses, cultural facilities, and residents along Commercial Drive that the area is far better known as “The Drive” than by the civic boundaries.
Commercial Drive, also known as The Drive, is a roadway in East Vancouver. A culturally rich and authentic neighbourhood. It runs from the south shore of Burrard Inlet south to 16th Avenue.

The History of “The Drive”
The Drive has come a long way from its original use as a skid road for dragging logs to the harbour. It was named “Park Drive” but was renamed “Commercial Drive” in 1911. At one time, a few speculators wanted to build a neighbourhood similar to the West End and Shaughnessy Heights. The global economic collapse of 1913 ended their dream. During the 1920s, Commercial Drive was a prosperous suburb, but it declined during the Great Depression and did not recover until World War II. The result was that several historical buildings and residences were built in the area. Commercial Drive was originally closer to the centre of town—the town was then located at Main and Hastings, not where it is located today. Throughout the 1980s, The Drive attracted a large counter-culture demographic, including political activists, lesbians, hippies, punks, and artists. Gentrification also came to the district with new condominium housing projects and new storefronts replacing old wood-frame stores. Today, the Upper Drive at Broadway has become the city’s busiest crossroads, with the second SkyTrain, or Millennium Line.
Today, Commercial Drive is a multicultural and urban area.
