VREP #175 | Vancouverism Revisited with Larry Beasley

What do you love most about Vancouver? Chances are that this week's guest had something to do with it; in truth, he may have had everything to do with it! Internationally-celebrated Urban Planner and former Co-Director of Planning at the City of Vancouver, Larry Beasley, joins Adam and Matt to talk about his new book, Vancouverism, covering the critical years between Expo 86 and the Olympic Games in 2010. But Larry doesn't only focus on the past. He has a host of exciting ideas - and even some solutions - for the future of a city he helped make great. No spoiler alerts here, but there is 1,000+ acres of prime real estate ripe for re-zoning that Larry believes won't go overlooked for much longer. This is an episode for the people that love this great city... some might even call it a love letter, but we won't. xoxo
