All we have are "vaguish" renderings that have been around for a while. We'll see what get's built. But as highrises, they're going to stand out, no doubt about that. Also, they're competing with a lot of developments here, so either they will go the more traditional route, or they will look for something a little more flashier that won't mesh with the current context as you see it. The way I see it, it's a massive waterfront development, and I only see the context of what is there now.
