I wonder if by 100 Keefer St, they mean one of those shitty little pay parking lots with little to no light and no security. Once long ago, I drove in, saw broken glass all over the ground, then drove out.

Hide any valuable that may be in your car. I work for one of these parking companies and it never surprises me how people leave cash, wallets, purses in plain site. Also these little signs work great. |

One area I always see broken window glass is on the south side of pacific drive between Richards and Granville, I would never park there!
I know this isn't about street parking, but almost every other time I run or walk along that sidewalk, i see it

I'd say Champlain market is the most dangerous place to park (off topic) I don't worry about theives, just older folk swinging their doors open onto my car or just hitting me parking forward... if I didn't drive an older corolla with solid steel bumpers, I'd never go back there again. I've been going there for 5 years, about 10 hits so far... most of them were very kind and apologetic. never cared but I guess I'll never own anything newer than 87
on a side note, I always see a newer white Subaru sedan sti, white 370z, blue 2004isj Subaru wrx and a few civics park together at the Starbucks there... you guys got balls lol Posted via RS Mobile |

There's always broken glass all over the ground on Olive Avenue in Burnaby, close to where Waves is.

I also wouldn't park in the streets anywhere near main and hastings. Saw this hobo with mental disabilities wiping a black 370z with a dirty paper towel and his spit.
