No doubt that the size of the project is a plus and that the area it fills is one of the most troublesome gaps in DT. Plus it is further east than any true high-rise so it's not filling in space that was likely to ever be very tall.
If this were in Ktown or Holywood it would be a clear winner. In DT it's what we can get at the moment, but it isn't what we should hope for.
But the real point is that DT seems set to become low-rise rental rather than high-rise condo. This will focus retail investment toward food, markets and services rather than mid to high range department or specialty stores.
