VREP #259 | Plans, Pro Formas and Politics with Michael Mortenson

Sometimes discussions on the future of Vancouver, our city’s real estate prices, and urban planning are too pie in the sky. Not today! Director of Livable City Planning, Michael Mortenson, sits down with Adam & Matt for a grounded conversation on all things Vancouver real estate, breaking down pro formas, discussing city housing policy, and highlighting the various factors that make Vancouver one of North America’s priciest cities. Should the city get into building housing? Does the development community wield too much power? And can we ever expect a day in which we are not talking about our city’s housing crisis? You like numbers & facts? We got numbers & facts!
