Norgate and Pemberton are situated at the south-western boundary of North Vancouver right next to West Vancouver.  The two communities are clustered around Marine Drive.  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 of Marine Drive and Norgate is the neighbourhood south of Marine Drive stretching south to Welch St.
