37 vs. 73

37 vs. 73 is the difference between a stump and a tower.

In Vancouver, BC, no office building is permitted to have a 40th floor, let alone 50 or 60. There is a 37 story RBC and more recently, the Stack-office-tower. In contrast, Seattle has a 76 story office tower.

37 - Why is this number everywhere? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6iQrh2TK98

There are various buildings with 73 stories, but they vary in their heights.

Transit, Bike and Pedestrian Bridges

https://structurae.net/en/structures/bridges/bicycle-and-pedestrian-bridges

Unlike Vancouver, BC, several cities are able to build transit, bike or pedestrian bridges without having to take away any lanes from the existing narrow bridges.

Some Perth Area Bridges

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan_River_(Western_Australia)#Bridges How could so much infrastructure have been constructed? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bridges_in_Perth,_Western_Australia

Well, WA is very far away from the restrictive backwater BC mentality.

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrows_Bridge_(Perth) 5 lanes each way and 2 train tracks.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9e/Narrows_Bridge_from_QV.1.jpg This scale of eneneering simply isn't allwed in Vancouver, BC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canning_Bridge#Current_structure:_1939

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/ca/Canning_Bridge_2006_SMC.jpg A nice 6 lane bridge that hasnt been Vancoverized.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windan_Bridge Another fine 6 lane bridge.

There is a plan to only have two 6 lane bridges within the city limits of Vancouver. While the stubborn city refuses to build bus and HOV bridges, even though that would dramatically improve transit.

Unlike the WA approach, the backwater BC way is to funnel everything into a series of chokepoints. Its the epitome of bottelneck absurdity. https://twitter.com/DriveBC/status/1595492088057335808/photo/1 A 3 lane wonder, or a total blunder? Why have a new structure for bus & HOV lanes & especially a harbor train crossing, when you can just have an inept 3 lane bridge?

Whether you are visiting from Perth, WA or Seattle, WA, nothing can prepare you for Vancouverization. Even if you are visiting from LA, you will notice that the mountains are smaller. Its as if they have been watered down, just like Greater Vancouver in general has.

Perth, WA and Seattle, WA

It's always interesting to see what Perth and Seattle are allowed to do, simply because they aren't bound by any BC type restrictions.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perth#Transport , https://developmentwa.com.au/projects/redevelopment/new-northbridge/overview , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_Farmer_Freeway#2013_tunnel_expansion

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle#Transportation , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_Route_99_tunnel

Of course Vancouver, BC would never allow anything like the Northbridge_Tunnel or the 99_tunnel to run under the downtown and connect to the North_Shore. 

https://twitter.com/DriveBC/status/1585381176919076864/photo/1 7L funneled into 3 lanes, a classic bottleneck. Even though an express bus tunnel with a provision for 2 train tracks would immensely improve this transportation corridor, it's not allowed. That's because Vancouver refuses to take a big city approach. Indeed, the Vancouver mentality is to emulate a provincial backwater mentality for as long as possible.

Growing Australia's smaller cities to better manage population growth

 https://www.ahuri.edu.au/sites/default/files/documents/2022-08/AHURI-Final-Report-386-Growing-Australias-smaller-cities-to-better-manage-population-growth.pdf

Whether its a city of 100K or a million people, or even if its just between 1000 and 10,000 inhabitants, a vast urban area can be added. However, not in the old-style of typical urban sprawl. Efficient trains and roads can be built right from the start. High and medium density housing and commercial places can be better coordinated.
