I think sadly Farr is about as good as you're going to get as ward 2 councillor. The people running against him like Nicole Smith or Cameron Kroetsch would be disastrous for downtown development.

I'm not even sure Farr really believes in the 30 storey limit, more that he thought the usual loud NIMBYs in the ward were for it and thought it would help him out, although now they all seem to have turned on him for the white elephant Discovery Centre.
