Thanks. The reason I asked the question is that I don't think the new buildings are too short (I actually think they are attractive as is), and am wondering if it was a business case decision or whether they were actually forced to cut off the height (as was alluded to). Sometimes there is a lot of bluster here about height which leaves me wondering how important it really is to have super-tall buildings...

Your diagram raises a new question, though... why was the Nova Centre exempted from the view plane rule? It clearly blocks VP6 and I can say it pretty much blocks most views of anything from behind it. Curious if it was made a special case for political reasons, or if I just don't understand the view plane requirements.
