In total, they have given up 55 floors. - the equivalent of one large building.

In all due respect though, Pinnacle has given up total of 55 floors (that they never had rights for ... as it appeared to be a 'shoot for the sky' type proposal)
 
It'd be nice to see real shadow studies of the massing, with correct azimuth and zenith for a given day and time. Or at least at the spring/fall equinox through 9am 12noon and 3pm.

The graphic of the shadows on the "site" plan back a few dozen posts is fiction.

Has anyone seen such a study?

If you click the link that waterloo warrior posted - theres a section at the bottom that says "supporting documentation".

There's a sun/shadow study in there.

Depends on your perspective.

They own the land so they have the "right " to build on it. Whats not clear is how much they will be allowed to build - which is a negotiated amount as I understand it - the rules are quite convoluted and murky - each project is awarded a certain density depending on a variety of things such as the phase of the moon. So since the end result is a negotiated amount, so far Pinnacle has given up 55 floors, I'd like to know what has the city counter offered - or does the applicant simply keep trying until the city says OK?
