Reposting the same 🞵🞵🞵🞵 over and over again doesn't make it less crappy. Southbank is geographically Melbourne's Yaletown. Melbourne's Broadway would be all the way out near Dorcas or Richardson, and that area basically looks like Kitsilano.

(1) Well, at least you get something right: not having faith for downtown Vancouver to win on a competition.
(2) Again you are so wrong in this. Old Melbourne's CBD measures around 3km on its widest section and 1.5km north-south. South Bank is outside that. Guess what? Vancouver's downtown has pretty much the same dimensions. Edge of Stanley park to the viaducts is around 3km, and from Waterfront station to granville bridge is 1.7km. So yeah, OV would be equivalent to Southbank. But since OV is a sleepy residential neighbourhood, W. Broadway can be the new equivalence.
