That and a number of high-rise condos, any one of which contains more people than all of the houses in that picture. I agree that there are still too many parking lots, but they are slowly being developed. Hopefully the Stampede eventually goes ahead with their "Main Street" project and builds a parkade to replace their parking, but I'd argue that if all of the houses shown were still there it would be seen as a wasted space - that low of density so close to downtown isn't what we're aiming for today.
