Comments from the peanut gallery:
- I like the tower and the idea of doing this style of redevelopment to support the redevelopment of the heritage building. I also think this is an important site along Barrington.
- This style of development is pretty popular in Halifax. There's another similar one on Brunswick Street.
- What's with the abstract faux historic rowhouse style with mansard roofs on the back side? That is so ugly. Just use a style that fits with the tower, but at a lowrise scale. There's nothing bad about mixing modern buildings in with a streetscape that is already very diverse.
- Hopefully they'll restore the cast iron fence.
