I love the Vancouver area in general (it's a beautiful part of the world) but not only is the city skyline bland but the city itself is one of the most boring I've ever visited. They've done a great job with the pedestrian and biking lanes and the waterfront is lovely to Stanley Park. But it's a lifeless city in most every way.
I tend to agree. Absolutely incredible location, and I envy residents for the relatively easy access to the mountains to the north, but the city itself has always struck me as really dull.
Probably the most pushback Ive gotten from something! Thanks for agreeing. Still confused how there wouldn’t be a bigger conception of the beautify idea.
I've heard a lot of this. Seems that there is so much right but also much not hitting the mark. Don't think skyscraper will actually solve any of that I guess.
Excellentbreakdown of how academia-focused outlets miss mass appeal stories. The Herbert Gans framwork is spot-on for explaining why IU's run got buried even though it was objectively huge news. I ran into this kinda thing covering campus stuff back in the day where trade publications would stick to policy and skip the cultural side.

Thanks! Glad to hear others have noticed.
