I like the gondola/cable car though. Burnaby is considering doing one up to SFU on the mountain.
the pearl district is full of parks, cafes, restaurans, shops and grocery stores, the south waterfront is only at the first stages of development, when i was there it was very busy, a lot of medical buildings, shops and cafes already there

portland has at least kept its industrualized areas and doesn't feel the need to change em all to residential like vancouver has done, you can actually use transit to get to work in portland, the IKEA may not be built up but you can't beat having the station in its parking lot
