Doesn't seem to have happened in South Core despite all the tall towers going up. I was in Toronto back in 2009 and again this June and despite I could notice so much development having happened, street life in that area is still completely absent and didn't seem to have improved at all in five years.

Also the CBD gets eerily so quiet after 7pm that it doesn't feel all that comfortable to be wandering around alone. I am sure it's still safe (since this is Canada and all), but it feel completely abandoned every evening.

I don't get this same feeling anywhere in Downtown Vancouver.
