The part of Broadway just south of the downtown Vancouver core is ideally suited to be a 2nd downtown. Despite having some view corridor protections, Downtown_Montreal and Austin are still allowed to build taller than what's allowed in Vancouver.

Montreal already has three 200m towers, with 3 more 200m towers under_construction. Plus, 3 more 200m buildings_in_the planning stages. In contrast very strict Vancouver, has only permitted one 200m building. Any taller building in BC must be built outside of the city limits of Vancouver.
Downtown_Austin has 3 towers over 200m, with four more towers over 200m under construction.

There are at least another four towers over 200m being planned.
The Living_Shangri-La tower is the only 200m building allowed in Downtown_Vancouver. It looks like there will be no other 200m tower permitted anywhere in Vancouver for the foreseeable future. For most of its history, the biggest stuff in the BC part of Canada was only in extremely restrictive Vancouver.
However, Burnaby will now have the tallest_buildings_in_British_Columbia and Vancouver can't stop it. Eventually, Surrey might have some of the tallest buildings in BC, but that still could be a ways off.
