The renders provided above changed my tune a bit on this proposal. The height and massing suits it's location. While 25 meters higher would have given the skyline a nice step-up as you are going closer to the core, it would have made the building too thin looking. Having it the same height as Shaw and Fairmont will greatly add to the appearent density and overall mass of the area. Only concern is again the table top look; however, there are plenty of smaller buildings to the west of this building that, in 10 or 20 years, could be torn down for larger and grander towers.
