Yeah the remaining single family (actually duplex now) zoning hasn't been a restriction on development. In the last several years the City of Vancouver took significant parcels of that SFH area such as Cambie, Marpole, and Norquay and up zoned it to allow for high rise and mid rise residential. Like I said, Vancouver isn't SF. Even with areas of the city untouched by redevelopment, there's still thousands upon thousands of units in the pipeline being developed in the areas the city has up zoned over the last 10 years. That's just the CoV proper, never mind the huge amounts of development next door in all the surrounding cities. On top of this, Metro Vancouver is still a young enough that there's massive areas of untouched brownfield and greenfield that are being redeveloped as well, such as Jericho, NEFC and the Squamish lands around Vanier Park.
