Vancouver, the City that Lights-up the Sky

When I was a kid, growing up in Duncan, you could see Vancouver on cloudy nights. Not the city itself, even without Mount Tzouhalem and Saltsping Island in the way it is too far away to show over the horizon from Duncan, but the city made the clouds glow red. Douglas Coupland called Vancouver a City of Glass. Unlike other cities, most of the towers in Vancouver are residential, and so the lights come on in the evening rather than go out. Behold the result of a million floor-to-ceiling windows.
