The Yale is located right at the foot of the Granville Street bridge in Vancouver. It’s one of those classic bars – everyone who lives here has been at least once. It’s over 100 years old, which is darn near ancient for the west coast. Some of the most famous names in R&B have played here. With that in mind, I made it look like a sax player blowing on the classic neon sign.
