Anyway, it goes to Staff level now where basically one person can wave their hand and bless this project.
With the 5-2 vote over such a minor squabble it's hard to not see this project get the density it needs.
Calling this area blighted is just incorrect and misinformed. Waterloo Park is nearby along with a full Sheraton Hotel and Avis Rental amd many Tenants in the building that will be razed to make room for this tower.

It's not really blighted, but it is pretty dead.
