    I don't think so, I was in the indoor volley ball place on Sunday afternoon and past by BV, park lot is empty and doors and windows still covered with paper; unless it changed since.

    Relax everyone, just some changes being made. The observation lounge is getting bigger, and slight delay on the climate control system, the weather needs to cooperate for it to be worked on.

    Life moves quickly here down at Badminton Vancouver; stairs leading to the observation deck and the entrance to the lobby on the left

    View from the lobby; a bit of imagination is required

    would it be state of the art if it didn't have it? Terago networks just finished installing their dish on the roof, it will be fast internet ;)

    Yes, they would have to include many things since their location lacks nearby amenities. Just provide more reason to play there and people will go there.

    aww cmon cappy, just being a great place for badminton isn't enough? Besides, we're neighbours with western Canada's only indoor beach volleyball centre. http://6packbeach.com I'm sure if you asked nicely, they'd be happy to drop the nets down a bit and let you play some "beach badminton"
