Massive Jericho Lands development will be 20-times denser than its neighbourhood

https://vancouversun.com/opinion/columnists/massive-jericho-lands-development-will-be-20-times-denser-than-its-neighbourhood-architect-says 
Once again, what might seem big by backwater BC standards is small or average in some parts of Australia.

None of the tallest buildings on the Jericho Lands will be as tall as the tallest in, Parramatta, NSW.

From Urban legends to facts about technology, people & places.

Every building, person & invention has a story that may intersect with coincidence, synchronicity or serendipity.

From The_Ghost_in_the_Machine, to things in general, technology & reality always has the potential to be like a double-edged+sword. (-/+)

This is a blog network that mostly provides links to various web sites & topics. Its more like a reference directory & less of a place for my commentary. It consists of several links from people with various points of view. Thus, its full of data & speculation from a multitude of sources. While many parts of this blog are updated, other sections might just contain a few lines of information from first posting. Some of these sections may parallel, or intersect with other parts that are not always in a linear order. Anything can be dismissed as coincidence, or perceived as Synchronicity, depending upon ones level of awareness & curiosity.
