In 2011, the Heritage Vancouver Society listed Lower Mount Pleasant as one of its top 10 endangered sites. Noted for its mix of residential, commercial and industrial heritage, the area is like no other in the city.

Heritage Vancouver¹s Anthony Norfolk sat down with the Courier at Laura's Coffee Shop located at the corner of Manitoba Street and Fourth Avenue to discuss the unconventional, sometimes anarchistic, charms of the neighbourhood.
