Although these 2 towers will be tall by Vancouver standards they will still be shorter than the Marina_City towers in Chicago. 

https://wikipedia/Marina_City "The complex consists of two 587-foot (179 m), 65-story apartment towers, opened in 1963..."

Why does that matter? Its just that what is considered big in Vancouver is usually small in other cities.

The Marina City towers can just barely be seen in the middle top of this picture.
