Snark aside, it is nice to see this area filling in. Hopefully a sign of momentum in the Quarters

For those interested in the render discussion, this B1M video is an interesting take on the whole "hyper realistic" render trend.

Not particularly good planning arguments for their appeal, even if consideration and reasonability should be present.

Very poor concerns. How would this be much different from the townhouse in regards to the hill? As per accessibility to road closure, the parking area directly west of the building has a thorough path for vehicles. I think Ken Thomas has blown it right out of proportion. The same arguments of noise could have been argued when Artspace was constructed while being Goliath vs David here. Very selfish objections imo.

Cool. I hope the NIMBYs efforts are crushed. They should buy the lot if they oppose it that much.
