Fun Fact: George Grant Mackay, the Scottish civil engineer who built the original
suspension bridge in 1889, was the Vancouver City Parks Commissioner
responsible for setting aside the land now known as Stanley Park.
Media note:
"If you see nothing else while you are in this gorgeous
city, make sure you take the Seabus
across to the North Shore and make
your way up to the Capilano
Suspension Bridge. A swaying
footbridge 230 feet above the
Capilano River, this was definitely
the best attraction we visited
during our stay. The views were
amazing and if you really want to
feel at one with nature, this is the
place to do it."

crossed Capilano Suspension Bridge since 1889.
The original bridge was constructed of hemp rope and
cedar planks. 450 feet (137m) long and 230 feet (70m) high,
today's bridge is made of reinforced steel safely
anchored in 13 tons of concrete on either side of the
canyon. Can you say "I made it!"?
