There was a good point in the article about one of the inadvertent benefits of the view cones. Parts of downtown that would have had exclusively tall towers are a mix of heights, and it lets more light in to various pockets of the city.

I'm not saying there aren't view corridors that shouldn't be removed (obviously Queen E Park for example), but it's not JUST the folks south of downtown that benefit.

Overall though, this kind of seems like a distraction from most of the rest of the city not being anything more than SFH + basement suites and laneway homes ;l Can we get back to that? (more than just multiplexes?)
