I arrived in Vancouver last 9, September. It was my first time in Canada. Next day I had to go my school in Richard street in downtown. But I couldn't understand Vancouver's streets naming system and how to get there. I asked somebody but I couldn't understand his English also I don't have a good sense of direction.
Finally I arrived in school 45minutes later so that Richard street is most unforgettable street name in Vancouver to me. But I never know the origin of that name. So that I searched the orgin of this street name.
