No sorry. I didn't mean there were no projects that get developed. I'm saying in relation to other cities in Vancouver it seems to take longer here. like park place, It's only taken 10 years to get it topped off. How bout across the street, 12 years and concord still hasn't fully completed it. How bout wave? didn't even bother trying to market the second tower still. But I was thinking more of the smaller infill sites. In south Surrey there are a bunch that are just sitting cleared and fenced off and it's been a decade and nothing has happened. The Bosa site on Johnson (technically in white rock) still not developed with the developer saying in 2014 that they didn't want to proceed due to market conditions! So when I hear and see things like that I just think wtf,
I'm not trying to shit on the success Surrey is having with the city centre renewal. I'm just pointing out how odd it is seeing these vacant lots sit empty when I'm always hearing how Surrey is the fastest growing city etc
