Mudflat Dreaming: Waterfront Battles and the Squatters Who Fought Them In 1970s Vancouver | Jean Walton

Jean Walton

Mudflat Dreaming tells the story of two communities on Vancouver's waterfront fringes in the 1970s. On the North Shore, a counter-cultural village of float houses and shacks on stilts sprouted on the estuarial Maplewood Mudflats. A few miles to the south, on the southern banks of the Fraser River above New Westminster, the long-established Bridgeview neighbourhood was mired in an endless battle with local city council for basic amenities.
