The Narrows
The harbour's only opening to the ocean is a narrow channel between steep headlands. On the poster it appears as a thin pinch of water between two dark masses of land.

The map
St. John's wraps around one of the most sheltered harbours on the North Atlantic, entered only through the Narrows, a slim gap between Signal Hill and the South Side Hills. On a map the harbour reads as an almost enclosed pool of white. The old downtown rises from its north shore in terraces, with Water Street and Duckworth Street running parallel to the waterline.
It is one of the oldest European-founded settlements in North America, and the street pattern shows its long, unplanned growth: lanes and stairways cut steeply uphill, then give way to a looser suburban layout. In 1901 Guglielmo Marconi received the first transatlantic wireless signal on Signal Hill, where Cabot Tower still overlooks the harbour mouth.
A St. John's map poster captures the city's unusual geometry: cliffs and coves on the ocean side, and inland ponds such as Quidi Vidi Lake and Long Pond scattered among the neighbourhoods. The outer ring road draws a wide arc around it all. Cape Spear, often called the easternmost point in North America, lies a short drive to the southeast.
The harbour's only opening to the ocean is a narrow channel between steep headlands. On the poster it appears as a thin pinch of water between two dark masses of land.
Water Street, Duckworth Street and the lanes between them step up from the harbour in long parallel lines. Short, steep connectors cross them and give the downtown its layered look.
Quidi Vidi Lake, home of the annual Royal St. John's Regatta, lies near the coast. Long Pond sits beside Memorial University. Walking trails ring both.
