Something a bit taller next to the freeway would have been appropriate... perhaps not 28-storeys, but what about 10-12 for longer structures parallel to the QEW? IMO that may have helped create a noise barrier for the shorter multi-unit buildings.

That said, this will be a fairly dense community with the 3- and 5-floor building clusters. Maybe it will be a good model for intensification elsewhere in the city, where towers are viewed as dragons.
