Îyârhe Nakoda, the traditional language of the First Nations Stoney Nakoda, also refers to the peaks as the Three Sisters. Although the name refers to Ĩ-ktomnĩ, the old man who would promise ‘three sisters’ in marriage whenever he was in trouble.

Vancouver House

Vancouver House was designed by Danish architect Bjarke Ingels. The design is based on a triangle that rises from the ground and gradually transitions into a rectangle as it ascends to the top.
Gastown Steam Clock - HWW
|
|
|
|
The clock was built to cover a steam grate that was part of Vancouver’s distributed steam-heating system. The clock was built as a way to harness the steam and to prevent street people from sleeping on the spot in cold weather.
A plant adjacent to the Georgia Viaduct generates the low-pressure steam that powers a miniature steam engine in the base of the clock, which drives a chain lift that moves steel balls upward, where they are unloaded and roll to a descending chain. The weight of the balls on the descending chain drives a conventional pendulum clock escapement, geared to the hands on the four faces. The steam also powers the clock’s sound production, which uses whistles to to signal the time and produce the Westminster chime. Each 1/4 hour the clock sounds the chimes on 5 brass steam whistlers.

Live every day of your life as if it were your last and love with all your might, because only then will you be happy and only then will everything around you make sense.
