I can't believe a progressive city like Vancouver allows Disneyland-style faux-village architecture that slaps on a "many little buildings" façade on one big building.
This is one of the nicest residential buildings to go up in a while. If you don't break up the massing of these buildings, you're left with a large blank wall. It's hardly over the top.

These two developments work ok. But my god, what a bland streetwall. A few developments of this scale in Chinatown are great, too many and the neighbourhood will be forgettable. I hope this is it.
