No, the Midtown was squashed because it was determined it was out of scale with what little heritage buildings their are around it and the fact that the scale is supposed to step down from the hill or Brunswick street. At 17fl the scale did not step down enough but it was under the sightline from inside the ramparts. The height now is 14fl. and wider on the same site so it is still a stretch under the current policies. The plan is to go forward under a new HRM b design format that has excluded this site from its height limits of approx 7fl. for this general area
