Ya Vancouver has all sorts of restrictions, in addition to the height one they also have lots of protected views and things like that so you end up with some different designs.

Edmonton used to have a height restriction due to the Municipal airport, now that it is gone they are wide open and currently building what will be the tallest tower outside of Toronto when done (Stantec). It will be 3.8m taller than Brookfield, but in my opinion is a far poorer looking tower than Brookfield, The Bow, and Telus Sky which will all be up there with it.
