22 not 44 or 66 floors. They are allowed to build so much taller in Melbourne, Sydney & Brisbane, because they don't have such restrictive Vancouver zoning restrictions to deal with. Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane & Perth are not only warmer than Vancouver, but just as scenic in their own ways.

Unlike Singapore, Honolulu still prevents 60 story buildings. Today there are still no buildings with a 50th floor on Oahu.
