The best views of BC Place are from across False Creek anyway.
Not for long as stubbly buildings will form along the waterfront, cutting the view of the stadium off as well. Well done, viewcone policy makers!

Be sure and make me eat my words when it happens... the removal of the plaza of nations buildings will only make the view better.

But then Metropolitan Properties' project will be built at the Plaza of Nations - and it is proposing that "arch" building.

I think the best views will be from the east - but the viaduct view will also be lost.

Remember this?

Silly SSPer, viewcones are for mountains, not iconic buildings!

I wonder if it will be taller than the tallest crane now... And at what point will they raise the shortest crane? Is getting pretty close to reaching the short crane's height.

Nice shot.

I wonder if there are any open houses facing west from Cooper's Point or Cooper's Lookout?

what a beautiful picture of dt van.

bottom right corner of the pic - lots of vacant spaces. lots of development opportunities there. Downtown Vancouver is dense, but it's not as dense as it can be. Could be denser!
