they'll get a really good price for it in this cap rate environment. maybe they need the liquidity to build something / make higher return elsewhere.

i'd imagine the bentall centres are a pretty safe bet from the perspective of lease space as they have so many anchor tenants (accounting firms, banks, etc.) as opposed to the consolidating smaller mining companies (though there are plenty in the bentall centres), fly by night tech companies, etc.
