you guys are so lucky you live in a city with so much history. it might not have the history of london or new york, or the modernness of hong kong, but its no slouch. i might be a bit bias since learning BC history was my favorite time in social studies back in school (im sure a lot of you werent here for that) and vancouver was a big part of it.
i've never lived in van (born and still live in kelowna), but i go there a lot and spend a fair bit of time just walking or driving around looking at the mix of history a modern development.
its a cool city. probably just behind montreal in canada. i read a lot of you bitching about all sorts of things down there, but every once in a while when you're driving over the burrard bridge, take a second to remember youre on a bridge thats 80 years old, and one of the best looking bridges around. or when youre stuck in traffic on the alex fraser remember that it was the longest cable stayed bridge in the world when it opened and is still the second longest in north america.
or maybe im just getting to an age where ive seen so much change that i get nostalgic over shit alot
