This proposal will be met with the usual NIMBY opposition, so I would have felt better if the developer submitted something taller -- at least as tall as the Ocean Towers on Brunswick Street. Hopefully the number of storeys will not be reduced.
I don't think there will be too much of an outcry. There are several residential buildings along Gottingen and its side streets that are around the same scale and height.
