You are joking right? Highways decimated and gutted so many downtowns of North American cities. It was one of the disasters of 20th century.

@@richardpacino8926 I’m not joking... How were highways the disaster of the 20th century? They allow for free and efficient travel for the people of highly populated areas. There’s a reason why Vancouver ranks 3rd in North America behind LA & Mexico City for worst traffic congestion despite having 5-8x less people than them. Not only that but Vancouver could also benefit from better bridges and tunnels. A proper highway allows for more efficient commerce, especially with large commercial vehicles and public transit. It’s also beneficial to the environment since you use less fuel on the hwy than you do in areas where you have to slow down and speed up constantly.

@@sonnyblack0870 You can google how Vancouver downtown was saved in the 70ties from monstrous highway which would completely leveled multiple historic districts, the little history and charm Vancouver had left. Not only that, there is lots of articles how freeways turned downtowns of American cities from unique neighborhoods and communities into concrete impersonal ghost towns. It's ok to run highways around cities to connect just like in Europe, not through them. That's why American downtowns are the ugliest most boring city centres in the world.

@@richardpacino8926 First off European cities have worse traffic than NA ones, you don’t wanna use their model, plus they’re incomparable due to their history and archaic layout. Your description of American cities, all due respect, is pretty ridiculous and disconnected from reality. Have you ever travelled abroad in the US? I live in Seattle, I’ve been all across both Canada and the US, and while I love Canada and it would be the only other country I’d want to live in, the cities in Canada are pretty boring and lifeless in comparison to US city centers. In fact the two most vibrant interesting cities in Canada happen to be the two that are the most American in their layout, Toronto and Montreal, both of which have hwys through them. The city of Toronto is way more exciting than Vancouver, and Montreal is unique as it has a cool blend of European & North American style cities; and plus it’s a great party town much like Atlanta and New Orleans.

@@richardpacino8926 Vancouver is a beautiful place but it’s a bland, boring, impersonal city. Not that a hwy would necessarily change that but it does add an element of scale and seriousness to a city. To be fair I looked up the freeway plans for Van in the 70’s and you’re right, they’re a little overbearing, but I have fam in Van so I go there a lot and the traffic is just stupid because of poor city planning. The bridges are too small, speed limits are too slow, and they cut off the freeways way too far out of the city. Vancouver would have little traffic issues if they had a highway from the airport up Granville St to the Granville bridge, ending short of the downtown core. Also extending hwy 1 over existing 1st street to the georgia st bridge ending before the downtown core; I’d even argue thru downtown along Georgia st and Stanley Park to the Lions bridge (which at the very least should be 4 lanes and ideally 6), over the bridge and back up to hwy 1 via Capilano, but I know any infrastructure discussions regarding Stanley Park is sacrilegious in Vancouver lol. Thing is too, and we do this in many of our cities, you can always bury the freeway as it goes thru the downtown core, obviously at a greater cost but this solves a lot of the intrusive issues regarding a highway.

the city would be ruined like countless american cities that build freeways. look it up. freeways kill cities.

@sebastian Sm ah yes, "road insurance". shut your ignorant face idiot.

You are nuts. It would destroy downtown

@@richardpacino8926 it may. However, it's better than it taking over an hour to get to downtown from the suburbs like Surrey/Coquitlam

@@sahilp70248 obviously you dont care Vancouver downtown to turn into boring city soulless concrete jungle like most of mind numbing American downtowns

The Cecil is gone. Replaced by a condo tower.

No more the neon signs, we the people going green, I mean back to the dark ages. Why those people of green ideology don't live in the dugout as an example to the public

@@cidv7447 nope they look American

@@cidv7447 also huh? Why so triggered

@@mrbrainbob5320 we can tell you're an intelligent person with a strong understanding of architectural history lol

@@funnyhandle well facts are facts the buildings do look American probably are as Canada does copy America in almost everything like art, music, film, fashion, food, style even accent. So Canada copying American architecture is not so surprising. Even Canadian suburban homes are just cheap American knockoffs.

@@mrbrainbob5320 they developed concurrently squid brains lmao

It's a fraternity party. Trust Me. Even if You cross the street, You won't get pulled back. This is an overrated gross out HOT SPOT. Staying away from Granville at night. Even during the day It's kinda FKD. Forget Hastings until You All have contributed to the problems. This place is still available for help. Sometimes these CATZ only are awake for a meal and uncomfortable sleep. Walk by very fucking often. Can't help but think the entowering only deserve this. BROTHERS! HOLD ON!!!

R Hineman HES A FRAUD

R Hineman I found it hard to focus because of the way he was pronouncing Granville

Stopped watching because of the nasally "Gran - Ville" !

@Zk AY I am living in the Westend area downtown for over 5 years, close to Nelson-Denman. It is impossible to walk in Granville street and not smell it. Homelessness is a serious issue here, no one can deny it (not saying that homeless ppl are bad or something, they are victims of property pricing).

😂

Everyone on here complaining about the smell of urine is new to the area. Pre 2010 You could smell it from East Van

@sebastian Sm Right, because they are "disappeared"

@sebastian Sm the saddest part is there is ruined communal garden.

@Zk AY then move the fuck out nazi
