Waterfront's also jammed with SkyTrain and SeaBus passengers, while Pacific still has room for additional foot traffic and a customs area.

Heck, if we've got that much money and land anyway, we might as well try a
SkyBus route up the Sea to Sky. Expand to Fraser Valley, Okanagan and Kamloops if it turns out well.
