I think this proposal is actually a cut above the waterfront developments south of the tracks in New Westminster, this is much better planned and more connected. I think better parallels for them to look at in BC to maybe see what's been successful and what hasn't would be the Olympic Village and surrounding areas, and River Green in Richmond, which is a suburban city that I think very closely parallels Vancouver, Washington.
