Wanna buy a Trevor Linden condo?
Here's an old interview with Trevor Linden exploring his side project as a condo developer.
On a developers note, here's a little bit on view cones, (if you're not an engineer, city planner, city councillor or architect). They are height and location restrictions imposed by the City to preserve the beauty of the Vancouver skyline. Unfortunately, city council approved the intrusion of the Queen Elizabeth view cone in '96 for the One Wall Center. The Shangri-La, on the other hand, was able to go through on a technicality - it was designed on a triangular base so as to bypass the view cone restriction.

Hmm.. I'd like to retire young and not have to work anymore.
