Very likely they'll be cut down. It's funny how stringent the city is about home owners cutting trees down on their own property, but when it comes to development it happens all the time.

Probably with some form of compensation planting.

And with some little stick trees to replace what was removed.

Probably with some form of compensation planting.

I'm sure, but they'll take years to grow large. What I'd like to see are more street cacti.

How many parking spots have been proposed? I haven't seen anything on that. Just wondering if they were trying to minimize parking spots like sorbara is doing on Camden (I believe only 9 spots in that building).

They are using mechanical parking lifts.

1 September 2012: I was staring at the rendering up close--yeah yeah y'all know I've got a thing for the renderporn and decided this could be a tidy little infill project indeed.

I work across the street on the 4th floor. I'll post more photos once the leaves have fallen from the trees.
