I still don't know what it refers to. That empty lot on Wyse Rd near the bridge is owned by a PEI businessman who had plans to develop it. But it would be commercial development, not what some Soviet-style planner deems the lot should look like.

Why are our tax dollars being used to derail potential investment?

The same holds true for Skye - Tax revenue for it is estimated at $6 million annually. Yet the czar deems it "Too TALL!" and demands that it be cut in half. Meanwhile the lot sits abandoned, decrepit, and empty, generating virtually no tax revenue for the city and keeping the downtown core looking like an empty battle zone. Totally ridiculous.
