Robson and Younge is a bit like the beltline on a much smaller scale. Sure downtown Calgary can be a dead zone after work but not the beltline. Pubs in the suburbs are also wall to wall busy during non covid times, people going for walks, runs, lots of local shops.
Sorry i just don’t understand what “atmosphere” people are looking for. What makes Vancouver so vibrant? Is it theatre’s, more coffee shops?
I suppose there’s granville island but it’s a bit overhyped if you ask me. It’s just a farmers market on the water. If you take your food outside there’s crazy seagulls eyeing your food.
I don’t get it.

I imagine your homerism towards Calgary is the answer. No one objectively looking at things would say Calgary is more vibrant than Vancouver. Calgary isn't even more vibrant than Victoria.
