Given that Mac just submitted these changes, the Ainslie Wood folks were probably commenting on the previous version. Though I doubt these changes may be enough to appease some of them.

The latest proposed version should give it similar scale to the hospital, right next door. I think Mac has done an exemplary job trying to be a good neighbour, especially with the setback along Dalewood and Traymore (which must be the angle of the render provided in the story)... hopefully it's an acceptable compromise.
