There's already countless outdoor areas, and while Metro Vancouver has a few malls, I'd say Metrotown is the best of them. I do like mixed-use developments with street-level retail, but are there not still a thousand strip malls and barely used parking lots that could be redeveloped first?

What’s so good about Metrotown? Every other store front is out of business or a bootleg store I’ve never heard of. Reminds me of Landsdowne mall in Richmond
