@mike_vlasman Also, that whole stretch of waterfront between Granville Island and Kits beach is sort of a desert, nowhere to get a coffee or a beer or a pair of sunglasses. Urban waterfronts should be busy. If nothing else, Sen̓áḵw will have retail and hospitality businesses.
@timbray There's a proposed retail/office/housing complex for the old brewery site right at Cornwall and Burrard, and the Lululemon site could be redeveloped once they move HQ. Right now, there's no place to get a coffee in Kits after 7 when the whole neighbourhood goes to sleep. Things are looking up.
