I've always thought it looked short as it is. Although my perception of height, especially from a distance, completely change after my trip to New York. No matter what Vancouver is going to look short unless it gets some supertalls. However, that doesn't detract away from the "wall of glass" look, especially from up close.I think it would be kind of neat for tourists on the cruise ships and on the Lions gate to see the taller towers set further in-city, only to have them drowned out by the shorter wall of glass as they approach... Sort of like what happens in New York with regards to the Empire State and Chrysler Buildings... only in New York is a fat wall of brick with intermittent glass.
