Mount Pleasant is one of the most diverse communities in the city. The area - stretching from Cambie to Clark Drive and from Great Northern Way and 2nd, to 16th and Kingsway - is an eclectic mix of new and old homes, industry, educational facilities, and artist live/work studios.

Mount Pleasant still has many significant homes dating from the 1890s through to the 1920s. Mount Pleasant's notable residential buildings range from a collection of modest houses from the community's first phase of development, to more substantial and elaborate Queen Anne/Edwardian type residential buildings constructed during the first two decades of the 20th Century.

In 2007, a new planning process is starting in Mount Pleasant to update the 20-year-old plan. The new Community Plan will produce plans for the shopping areas and neighbourhoods, action plans for pressing social concerns, and longer-term policies to address community-wide issues.
