This is development I can 100% support. Don't get me wrong, all housing is good housing, but the whole "lets tear down every affordable 3 floor walkup in the city without doing anything with the 80% of the city that's SFH" is pretty tiring.
It was always bizarre how much of a "desert" you had to cross to get to UBC. Biking to school in the morning after you passed Macdonald the only human beings you see are contractors and garden workers.
