An interesting article was published by CityHallWatch about who’s winning when the our City Council approves these massive developments on public land (i.e. the City of Vancouver).  The proposed 52-storey “Vancouver House” luxury residential tower is being largely marketed at wealthy overseas buyers while local residents are finding the city to be unaffordable.  We need a City Council that works in the interest of local residents – more affordable housing, more green space and a more livable city.  Please sign our petition to save Emery Barnes Park from another massive development that adds no value for local residents.  Let’s take a stand on this issue and the other issues being fought in other Vancouver neighbourhoods.
