I have to wonder how these people are going to enjoy the sirens of the fire station going off though hehe.. hope they invested in some soundproofing.. or how people enjoying the park are going to enjoy that - esp. women with kids and babies..
Also they should coat the white on the building with a substance that doesn't allow paint to adhere to it so that any tagging will just roll off.
I still love the concept of full grown trees on the roof - I hope they use all those roof "jutouts" as it's a great way to give space back to nature.

I live nearby, and our bedroom faces John where they regularly drive sirens blaring. You get used to it. Our 80s windows actually do a decent job of stopping the sound too, so with decent windows it wouldn't be too bad.
