Still the retail frontage setback is now more imminent haha...but we shall see how this plays out.

My initial impression of the latest design was that I don't like it. Although with more time in letting this settle in, I can live with this. Especially considering that we've already moved past the fun colourful iteration by quite some time now. Ultimately, this will be a net gain with an addition of housing, in midrise density format, on a fairly low-profile downtown side street site. What I want to see more than anything is some actual action instead of this continue to languish in development planning limbo.

It's not a proper Kensington render without a bunch of strung out punks loitering about in the foreground.

When were you last in Kensington? I can't say that mirrors my experiences there.

This looks pretty good, but it is hard to forget the bait and switch from the previous design.
