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:
“It seems I impregnated Marge
So I do rather feel, by and large,
Some cash should be tendered
For services rendered,
But I can’t quite decide what to charge.”
—Anonymous.
“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“O, the difference of man and man!
To thee a woman’s services are due.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
