But people already are. This happens all the time. Wasn't New West the "Vancouver" of the old? What happened?
Over time it's bound to happen, because Vancouver Metro already has many "downtowns". Metro Vancouver is growing differently than many other cities. Look at the master planned communities around the Metro. You have 50+ towers going up in Burquitlam of all places ffs. 260+ meter towers. Metrotown is mini DT at this point. Surrey will be a juggernaut.
Meanwhile DT Van is building 80 meter towers once every 5 years
Families aren't moving into shitboxes downtown. They are buying condos in Brent, Burquitlam, Lougheed, Surrey, Metro etc...
