Looks great. But, seriously, is the height limit on this part of Sackville street 8 floors? FFS.

This is my one problem with HRMxD. Its drafters caved far too much to the heritage / STV people, whose influence, IMHO, has increasingly and happily waned. 11 Stories, to me, seems actually pretty short for that area. The fact that 8 is the height that is possible is ridiculous.
