Gastown is an area of Vancouver, located between Downtown and the Downtown Eastside.
Gastown's most famous landmark is its steam-powered clock, located on the corner of Cambie and Water Street.
It was Vancouver's first downtown core and is named after "Gassy" Jack Deighton, a British seaman, steamboat captain and barkeep who arrived in 1867 to open the area's first saloon.
