I don't have a problem with the base except that it doesn't have anything in common with its surroundings. Scale-wise, I don't see that the proportions of the windows and opaque panels in the residential section have anything to do with the building as a whole, they look like an arbitrary jumble. The whole effect of the building looks like a chopped-off high rise (which may well be the case judging from the "Mid-rise Scheme" notation). It's also interesting to note that this proposal was done two years ago.
