The Barrington buildings are more significant architecturally, more unique, and also municipally registered heritage buildings (therefore ostensibly protected). They're also in a higher-visibility location. I don't care how shiny or tall a building Dexel might propose for this location, I'm against it.
I don't love losing the Brenton ones either, but it's a less significant loss, all things considered.
