Auckland guide to housing affordability and soft urban renewal:
Step one: Amalgamate the disjointed municipalities with different plans into one city
Step two: Rezone 75% of all land for townhouses

"....There is much about the Auckland experience that is hard to replicate, analysts say, not least because of its lack of historical development, which meant it was a blank template compared with already densely developed cities such as Sydney...."
Not exactly the case with Vancouver with its many highrise neighbourhoods.
