These beautiful buildings stand as a rebuke to and an example for the $8M mansions and exclusionary zoning in Kits Point and on Point Grey Road.
We should be angry that Vancouver could not or would not do what the Squamish have accomplished here.
"The Squamish are going to make a lot of money, and Vancouver is going to get a lot of new housing."

Granville pedestrianization for World Cup seems so far to be hugely popular and successful.
You could say it’s a test run toward the future. Our recently adopted Granville Street Plan lays out a fully pedestrian vision.
This is the World Cup content I'm here for.
YIMBY/pro-housing is one of the precious few issues in US politics that has managed to hold itself somewhat apart from the polarization that sucks everything else in. It's got bipartisan, or at least cross-partisan, support.
My dream is for clean electrification to follow suit.
Excited to be working on a new approach to a land value tax that would be legal in WA state.
Tax buildings less and land more and you'll get more new buildings and less vacant land.
It's a non-zoning solution for mitigating the housing shortage, and it's value capture done right.
