The document discusses characteristics of central business districts (CBDs) and examines how well Vancouver exhibits these characteristics. It finds that central Vancouver displays many typical CBD features, such as distinct land use patterns, concentration of public buildings and retail outlets, vertical zoning, and high population density. It also has very tall buildings, high land values, and attracts people from outside the city to work and spend money.
