I am surprised how the view cone can be so restrictive at this location. It is behind the Downtown "hump", which means it must be some 20 meters or more lower than towers on top of the hump. One would think that buildings here could go taller and wasn't this one of the magic sites in the West End community plan?

I really thought what they were looking in terms of height would be within the limits. Also such a — move by the city, considering that this building could be something to defy Vancouver (together with few neighbouring towers). This area will be the new showcase gateway into the city, which will be photographed a lot. Don't they get the value of that?
