That is one aspect I like about Vancouver. In that no matter what direction you go there is some form of limitation that well stop you from going any further in development. So even if sprawl covered every last square inch. It would mean that going up is the only option.
No physical limits whatsoever (except for maybe the nearby New York state [75 km away] and Ontario [80 km away] borders). That being said, Montreal can expand in all directions, which limits the amount it extends in any particular direction I suppose.
