Will there be enough of these new buildings to really stand out in the skyline though? Vancouver has always had a lot of really nice buildings, they just get lost in the mass of the skyline.
Most definitely. This is just a future pano of Westbank's current projects to give you an idea.
Vancouver has the projects I am most excited to see built in the next 5 years. What other two Ole Scheeren buildings are you referring to? I only know of the Jenga one.

Nice bridge. I'm a big fan of arch bridges (the Lupu Bridge here in Shanghai, which the bridge in your picture resembles, is one of my favourite bridges anywhere).
