These communities are clustered around Marine Drive east of the Caplilano River and Capilano Rd, and located just east of the Capilano Indian Reserve lands. The neighbourhood of Pemberton was settled in the 1920s through the 1940s, taking advantage of the flat waterfront land to house the Burrard Inlet's shipyard employees. Today Pemberton is the area west of MacKay Ave north or Marine Drive and Norgate is the neighbourhood south of Marine Drive stretching south to Welch St. Shopping Simply put, Norgate is close to everything. Marine Drive is at most 4 blocks away, and connects to everywhere on the North Shore. Nearby is a large Save-On-Foods store, restaurants, and services. Mini-malls line Marine Drive. Going west on Marine drive immediately takes you to West Vancouver and the Park Royal Shopping Centre, recently renovated, it is one of the largest shopping centres in the region.

The nearest high schools are Carson Graham to the east and Handsworth above the Upper Levels Highway.
