Hume's a blowhard who sees numbers, not design. Yes, I'd understand his ULTRA-RAGE if it was a 48 storey Claridge building proposed on that site, but it is 3 storeys off from what's currently allowed, and looks better than anything else built recently in the neighbourhood.
Not every rule should have an exception, but come on.
Wasn't Hume recently proposing a 10-storey height limit for the whole of Ottawa? Lot-line-to-lot-line cube buildings to ensure people's imaginations aren't stimulated.
