Vancouver has consciously willed itself into becoming a model of contemporary city-making. Every month, the view of the downtown peninsula from across False Creek North changes yet again. Rezoning industrial lands to high-density residential use has been a key tactic in Vancouver's ongoing strategy to become a more compact, higher density, sustainable community.
Throught the widespread rezoning of traditional water-dependant industrial lands,Vancouver's urban waterfront has become one of its greatest physical assets, and many sections are now publicy accessible for the first time in the city's history. A key move in the story of rezoning commercial lands was the city "Living First" intitiative focused on the environment, quality of place and quality of life.
Keys urban moves includes the Coal Harbour waterfront redesign with park spaces, marina activity, restaurants, cafes and shopping on the water's edge. Concord Pacific/False Creek North lands explored the new idea of high density, high rise residential living with some 42 acre of public park and an interupted wide waterfront walk way/bike way that link the parks and streetends.
The city of Vancouver has around six hundred thousand residents, which is approximately thirty percent of the total metropolitan population, and live on less than two percent of the total Greater Vancouver base land. The population of the downtown core rose from forty five thousand residents in the 1990s to ninety thousand residents in 2008. It is the Fastest growing downtown core in all North America. Another forty thousand residents are expected to move to live Downtown by year 2021.
