Inscription. Commemorating the pioneering of the work of the Salvation Army in Vancouver. It was on this clearing the Salvation Army erected a rugged shelter, picnic tables, and then held services of song. In the silent atmosphere of early Burrard Inlet, the song of "Hallelujah, Hallelujah" could be clearly heard across the waters to downtown early Vancouver - Water and Cordova Streets - and the clearing thus named "Hallelujah Point".
