I've already said that I question whether there's sufficient market demand for 1,500 condo units on the site, but you don't seem to understand what is being proposed. Holborn own the entire block, except for the blue clad office building on Dunsmuir. They only propose to keep the facade of the 1920s building on Georgia. Everything else gets redeveloped. Phase One is two condo towers on Richards, with a podium running the entire length of the block, incorporating the heritage facade. The hotel and open space will be opposite The Bay.
