Downtown Eastside

Canada

Downtown Eastside connects to 662 places across 16 topics through 45 Bunkabop connections, with public health and social policy forming the dominant thread. Many of its connections trace to Vancouver and to wider Canadian policy debates on drug rehabilitation, mental illness, and poverty. A smaller cluster covers the performing arts, including the Smilin' Buddha Cabaret at 109 East Hastings Street, which ran from 1952 to the late 1980s, and venues that host City Opera of Vancouver and the Dancing on the Edge Festival.
