Services
The station is within walking distance of Leg-In-Boot Station on the Vancouver Downtown Historic Railway (a tram service which ran for several years until 2009, on weekends, connecting Science World and the Main Street – Science World SkyTrain station to Granville Island). If the City converts the Downtown Historic Railway to a full streetcar line, there would be a stop at Olympic Village Station.
In addition to the Historic Railway, the station is within a short walk of the False Creek Ferries and Aquabus Ferry stop at Spy Glass. Both companies provide service to Granville Island, David Lam Park, Yaletown, Plaza of Nations and Science World, while False Creek Ferries provides service to Kitsilano and the West End.
The #84 bus provides express service from this station to UBC and VCC–Clark Station.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“True love ennobles and dignifies the material labors of life; and homely services rendered for love’s sake have in them a poetry that is immortal.”
—Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)
“I see this evident, that we willingly accord to piety only the services that flatter our passions.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“The community and family networks which helped sustain earlier generations have become scarcer for growing numbers of young parents. Those who lack links to these traditional sources of support are hard-pressed to find other resources, given the emphasis in our society on providing treatment services, rather than preventive services and support for health maintenance and well-being.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
