Mark by mark
Start with the rays. Parq keeps its casino floor open day and night, all week. All seven rays run to full length, Monday at the top and the rest clockwise. Because the floor never closes, no hours spill past midnight into the next day's ray, and no segment is dashed.
An empty inner ring sits inside them. Parq publishes no separate hours for its live tables, so the ring has no arcs to draw.
Three of the four rim dots are filled. The poker dot marks the room on Level 3, which keeps the same 24-hour days. The hotel dot stands for two hotels, the JW Marriott and The Douglas. Transit is filled as well. The racebook dot stays hollow, because no racebook or simulcast racing is listed for Parq.
Laid over Starlight
Starlight Casino New Westminster, the casino in New Westminster, is 15.1 km from Parq in a straight line. Laid over each other, the glyphs share seven full rays, an empty ring and a filled poker dot. Those shared marks fade out. Poker hours differ behind the shared dot. Parq's room runs 24 hours daily; Starlight's runs from 11 AM until late Sunday to Thursday, with no closing time published.
Three dots stay lit. Parq's hotel dot is filled and Starlight's is hollow. The racebook dot reverses that, since Starlight's racebook sits in MATCH Eatery & Public House. On transit, Parq is filled, while Starlight's nearest SkyTrain station, 22nd Street Station, is 1.6 km away.
Outside the marks
Games have no mark on the glyph. The games Parq lists are slots, poker, baccarat, roulette, blackjack, Stadium Gaming and electronic touch machines, yet no slot or table counts are published.
Food and drink sit outside it too. KOI Noodle Bar, D/6 Lounge, Honey Salt and The Victor are among its restaurants and bars. At the door, every guest shows ID whatever their age, and no specific dress code is set. Encore Rewards membership is handled at Guest Services on Level 2.
Parking runs on its own schedule: self-parking on the property is paid by plate and open 24 hours.
Getting in
Parq Casino is at 39 Smithe Street, Vancouver; general enquiries go to 604-683-7277. On non-event days, parking costs $5 an hour before 5 PM. Between 5 PM and midnight a flat rate is charged: $20 from Sunday to Thursday, and $25 for Friday and Saturday. From midnight to 5 AM the charge is $15, and a 24-hour stay costs $55.
Entry is for adults 19 and over. Whatever a guest's age, ID must be shown on entry, and each casino in B.C. scans government-issued photo ID. Five SkyTrain stations lie within 1 km in a straight line; the nearest, Stadium-Chinatown Station, is 0.5 km away. The straight-line gap to Starlight Casino New Westminster is 15.1 km, measured the same way.

Questions about the marks
Why is no ray dashed on the Parq glyph?
A dashed ray means floor hours are not published. Parq keeps its casino open round the clock on every day, so each of the seven rays is solid and full.
Is there a poker room?
The poker dot is filled: Parq has a poker room on Level 3 that runs round the clock, all week. The ring stays empty, because no separate hours are published for the live tables.
Is there a station nearby?
The transit dot is filled. Five SkyTrain stations lie within 1 km in a straight line, and the nearest, Stadium-Chinatown Station, is 0.5 km away.
