What the viewcones limit is the prettiness of the skyline, which —, but does almost nothing for or against capacity; 47k square feet more or less (e.g. Jenga tower) isn't going to change jack squat, especially when compared to just adding 350k next door.

Ya, I already said they aren’t doing well. That’s not news. But they will emerge again. The fundamentals are strong and if you look back in history, the city made inroads before oil took off and on the process took some non oil petroleum head offices with them away from us while we were asleep at the switch. Never mind attracting news business cause they did that much better too. Maybe now that we finally appear to be removing our heads from our asses in the tech sector, maybe at least one of those tech companies that bypassed us the first time to set up shop in Alberta will come this way.
Also, I never said demand was low. I said we don’t have enough supply online. As it pertains to the election, we need to ensure there is enough incentive to keep our supply robust. Other cities have policies in place to do just that. It wouldn’t hurt us to follow that path. But you need cooperation at the municipal level.

Any examples? Not trying to start anything, but I'm seeing that even the new Chinese places are significantly more yuppie-oriented than their predecessors. Old Chinatown just doesn't work anymore.

I said, the low vacancy rate would indicate that they're very much coming this way and waiting in line. Just need to keep building.
