Yes indeed at 1070 feet, the Salesforce_Tower will be quite an impressive sight for the city.

http://www.businessinsider.com/photos-of-salesforce-tower-san-francisco-2017-4/#salesforce-and-its-billionaire-ceo-marc-benioff-are-riding-high-these-days-1

"The building rises 1,070 feet high and is the tallest U.S. office building west of Chicago. Salesforce, a cloud-computing company that specializes in customer relationship management, is the "anchor tenant" and will occupy floors three to 30 and the top two levels, 60 and 61. Rather than designating the two top floors for executive offices, Salesforce will keep them open to all employees and their guests, Pinkham said." http://www.cnbc.com/2017/04/06/salesforce-tower-san-franciscos-tallest-building-views.html

Some Urban Trains

Fortunately, Toronto & Montreal had enough vision to plan & build 152.45 m or 500 foot long subway & metro stations. Even Edmonton & Seattle have much longer underground train stations than the Vancouver-Richmond Canada+Line. The Vancouver C-Line is a fine example of congestive planning to be studied all around the world.  

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-train

"The operation of the Central Circle is similar to the S-Train systems in Germany and other countries."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_Central_Circle#Opening_and_operation

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_Central_Circle#Stations ,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siemens_Desiro#Desiro_RUS

"The line is operated by 33 Siemens ES2G Lastochka trains..."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_Central_Circle#Rolling_stock

Russians aren't afraid to use good German technology.

http://www.rzd-expo.ru/innovation/stock/railcar_rolling_stock/Desiro%20RUS.pdf

I wish that they would allow some of that German tech in BC but BC still strives to maintain and keep things at a smaller scale. 

The Moscow Circle Line is a much more recent development than the one in London. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_line_(London_Underground)#Map

"Since the beginning, platforms have been at least 155 metres (509 ft) long to accommodate eight-car trains. The only exceptions are on the Filyovskaya Line: Vystavochnaya, Mezhdunarodnaya, Studencheskaya, Kutuzovskaya, Fili, Bagrationovskaya, Filyovsky Park and Pionerskaya, which only allows six-car trains..." 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_Metro#Platforms_and_train_lengths

There is suppose to be secret deeper level subway around Moscow.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metro-2#.22Underground_City.22_in_Ramenki

Of course when severe flooding occurs, the subways are among the first things to be affected.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siemens_Desiro#United_Kingdom 

http://dailyhive.com/vancouver/short-platforms-and-trains-is-the-skytrain-canada-line-under-built-and-nearing-capacity 

How in the hell is the 3rd line constructed to have the smallest stations, in-spite of increasing future demand? 

http://dailyhive.com/vancouver/canada-line-seating-configuration

No city has spent billions of dollars just to have 2 car trains, except Vancouver & Richmond.

http://www.railforthevalley.com/latest-news/zweisystem/is-the-canada-line-a-classic-white-elephant

Apparently, the 50 m platforms are only long enough to accommodate 2.5 car trains as capacity demand increases. http://www.railforthevalley.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Canada-Rail-213-e14082980653651.jpg

Sure in the early years, Montreal could run a Mickey Mouse 3 car train, but their Metro stations were designed to accommodate a 9 car train during the very busy times & 6 car trains for intermediate demand. 

So the BC inept planning process never allowed for a future demand of at least 152.5 m or 500 foot long stations & platforms. Instead, they designed the max potential to be only 50m or 164 feet. That's pathetic & only adds to the deliberate bottleneck planning approach that BC aspires to. 

30-100 year plans http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/ubc-tunnel-subway-transit-bc-mauro-chiesa-1.4050842 

As long as a line above ground & especially underground, has level sections of 500, 600 or 700 feet, then full length stations can be constructed.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_Line#Stations

When BC planers only allowed for a 50m or 164 foot level section for each Catheter Line,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SkyTrain_(Vancouver)#/media/File:Vancouver_SkyTrain_track_diagram_v3.svg

If a system starts out with little trains but has designed the ability to triple or quadruple the length of the station platforms, then its just a matter of building that future extension right from the start or at some point later on. 

http://www.railforthevalley.com/latest-news/zweisystem/the-subway-panacea-myth/

Chicago & BART can still run ridiculous 4 car trains but the capacity to run 10 car trains was built in right from the start.

SYDNEY and its metro

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqlBywEmFBo

Not only does Sydney have much longer trains & platforms, they are double level trains! Its like BC has made sure that it must never match the capacity that NSW & New_England has allowed for.
