Mount Pleasant is a neighbourhood in Vancouver stretching from Cambie Street to Clark Drive and from Great Northern Way and 2nd, to 16th and Kingsway (Vancouver). The neighbourhood, once characterized as working class, has undergone a process of gentrification since the early 1990s, including the area around the Main Street and Broadway intersection that is increasingly becoming known as South Main, or SoMa.. Vancouver City Hall is also located in Mount Pleasant.
"Mount Pleasant" is the name of the homestead of the Shreve family of Mansfield Township (near the town of "Columbus"), Burlington County, New Jersey. Construction of the home was completed in 1742. It is the birthplace of Henry Miller Shreve.
