Lol they are literally putting 21 new highrises in what was once a sleepy mall parking lot here in vancouvers suburbs by my crib. If you reserved a year ago and put money down you could have gotten a 1 br 1500 sq ft unit for like 350,000 canadian. First 2 buildings sold out and they havent even dug the hole for the foundations yet.
You couldnt find a hipster if you tried.
Rec centers are overflowing, anything that was once niche has a huge line, every parking lot is now a tight squeeze underground, festivals or fairs( dont even bother).
The only way to get anything done is to now go to run down old places that females hate.
Old theatres, malls, gyms....but even their days are numbered.
Im white flighting on house prices and people density...not because i dislike being around other cultures
My dude, same issue with Toronto. We got 'International Students' from China coming here and buying any kind of house (town, semi, detached) for $50K-$100K over asking. They just want to move their money out of China and don't give a damn for the locals. Government needs to step in and do something immediately.
