The folks at Granville Island sent along this note regarding parking:
Please allow a little more time than usual to park on Granville Island, as one of the lots closest to Performance Works is now closed for repairs. We encourage you to explore the pay parking lots on the island--they are free after 7:00 pm.

Granville Island is a major destination for Vancouverites and visitors alike, with plenty of amenities including a public market and many great places to eat.
