Why? You're entitled to your opinion obviously but why? Why do you think they are too tall?

I also think this area should only get mid rise developments under 250 feet if possible.

Think of the damage this will do for the views from Queen Elizabeth park.
What views towards what? Oakridge is behind Queen Elizabeth Park with respect to the mountain views that everyone in Vancouver is so militant about. So the development will be to everyone's backs. If you mean from Queen E there should be no towers in view, then they had better start demolishing Downtown Vancouver.

So again what view is being damaged? I'm just confused is all.
