Don't confuse me with being anti-height. A 40 storey residential complex is exponentially easier to result in a mediocre warehouse than something more human scaled. I understand Toronto having to build complexes that tall but, I don't see Halifax building 40 storey tower complexes as a bold statement ignoring this being a forum with skyscrapers in its name.
Halifax has time. Too many units addressing affordability in Toronto's insatiable investor real estate market have been built for these overpriced, undersized units to remain the standard for years to come after common sense has put the housing crisis to rest.
