There could be more lights and more people but to say that downtown is dead and comparable to Detroit, really?

Don't you live in Surrey or something?
I've got to say I was hugely disappointed by the street lights on Granville after all the hype they got before their installation. They may as well have just put florescent tubes in a clear tube and called it quits.

They really could have done something more interesting with some coloured cold cathode tubes or RGB LEDs.
