Shaughnessy is an almost-entirely residential neighbourhood in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, spanning about 447 hectares[1] in a relatively central locale.

[5] The neighbourhood was created in 1907 by the Canadian Pacific Railway, the largest real estate developer in Canada.

[6] Thanks to aggressive marketing by the railway, highly regulated development, and a stronger degree of exclusiveness, it gradually took the latter's status over the past century.

In First Shaughnessy, Angus Drive and Osler Street have a tree-lined median in addition to the trees along the edge of the road.

[2] Shaughnessy is home to Little Flower Academy, Vancouver College, and York House School.
