Vancouver is a two-million city in Canada and a very popular tourist destination. But researchers are saying that some parts of the city might soon become ghost towns. A recent study has revealed that almost 15% of apartments in Coal Harbour, a new neighbourhood in Vancouver’s centre, are not crowded. The area is not messy and safe with glass high-rise towers and wide streets. The harbour is always noisy and full of people. There are lots of clean cafés and restaurants, where people can spend their afternoons. So why are the apartment buildings empty? Many say it’s because of the high cost of real estate, and local people just can’t afford to live there. Will this area turn into another ghost town? Only time will tell.
