There is no such thing as a secured parking space. Just don't leave any valuables in your car and keep your fingers crossed.
The number of break-ins to vehicles in Vancouver almost doubled in the last eight years.

Hudson building where the Keg/Steve Nash is. Zero issues and it's been 4 years or so but this is also one of the most expensive buildings to rent parking as well.

Break-ins will only continue to be a more common occurrence with the police not giving much care to them nowadays.

Underground gated monthly only. Never have a problem. Don't leave stuffs in plain sight, you'll be fine.

the addicts don't have money, catch them, release them and they'll do it again
