I work in the Tupper Building and frequent the neighbourhood businesses. Like most such developments, I don't care how tall the buildings are, but I really hope that good urban design elements are there at street level, and that quality materials are used. Based on past performance, I have more confidence in Dexel than Kassner-Goodspeed. We'll see.
Most of my students (and employees) live in the Barrington South neighbourhood or near Quinpool Road, and very few live in the mid-rises and high-rises that line Spring Garden Road. I suspect, once this block is built out, that more Dalhousie students and staff will choose to live where they study and work, respectively.
