Prospect Point lookout, Stanley Park
The bridge opened on Saturday 12 November 1938, first to pedestrians, who crossed in cold rain and sleet; cars followed on the Monday, when car tolls began. The scene is the bridge on its birthday, seen from the Prospect Point lookout with its lights on. On opening day 60 sodium lamps lit the deck; the white necklace along the main cables came in 1986, 170 lamps paid for by the Guinness family for Expo 86.
