Character
There are a lot of green spaces to enjoy in Vanier, despite its sometimes busy ambience. There are a few public green spaces close by for residents to unwind in, such as Wilson Park and Wilson Park Natural Area, and they are especially well-situated, which makes them very easy to get to. Lastly, due to the presence of few people out and about on the streets, this part of the city remains relatively quiet; however there can be more noise for those who are around one of the railway lines, Highway 7 or Highway 8.
