THE
CARNEGIE
CENTRE
The Carnegie was opened in 1903 as Vancouver’s first public library. In 1957 it
became the
City Museum and then was empty for ten years. Carnegie
Centre is a positive place to go, need help you will
probably find what you need at
Carnegie Centre. The Carnegie Centre at 401 Main
Street provides a range
of social, recreational and educational programs for the residents of
Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. It is often described as the community’s
living
room—a place where people can come to participate in programs or to
simply
relax and socialize with others. Carnegie Centre provides help for the
homeless
and poor people of the downtown eastside.
