I would love to see something built the beat the 80m mark. I agree with posters in the Official Project thread who say the skyline is bland with only 45-50m buildings in the downtown. While the hills cover for it somewhat, we really need some height to add some variety. 60m is a great start for projects outside the downtown, but DT we should be way past 60m by now! |
I 100% agree! there does need to be some more height variation. Constantly building at a height downtown of ~40-50m will not only make the skyline seem boring but it will also be wasting valuable land , which has great potential for taller buildings!. I think something in between the 70-85m range would be an excellent start to achieving a nicer skyline. At least then there won't be as much of a flat roof effect.
In other words I really like this development! Hopefully this will make developers more aware that they can get away with something a little bit higher!Hopefully this is the start of not having a fear to height
By the way spring is just around the corner! which means that there may and hopefully be some new proposals coming up!!
