The 6,500 units count is about the whole community that will use this station, not just this project ...

6500 units to be built, about 2000 units approved already.
The area between Garden City from the east, No 3 Road from the west, from Sea Island, to Capstan, to Cambie, there are still some grass fields.

In Hong Kong, 16 units per floor are mostly public housing.

The 6,500 units count is about the whole community that will use this station, not just this project. Station's construction cost is $2.5M, and downstream cost per unit is $8K. The project is ~312 units.

Capstan Way is close to the airport, and in Richmond (earthquake Jello zone). There is no way they would build 40 floor building.

In the article, they say they are going to build 6500 units, that is a lot of units.

Even in Hong Kong, with 8 units per floor, ~40 floors per building, total ~320 units per building.
Are they going to build 20 such buildings?

BTW, I would like to see more stations in Richmond if they can expand to Steveston Village.

I wish so too! But I guess the city might think a skytrain/canada line station doesn't fit well to the neighborhood thou. :P
