I don't have an issue with the height so much as Sera being the architect, which more or less guarantees a mediocre final product. I'd take 7 stories of Lever over 20+ stories of Sera any day.
It often seems odd to me that the "market", such as it is, supports 15 stories at NE 7th/Irving and only 7 stories right downtown near PSU. But I've long given up on trying to understand the myriad calculations that go into this sort of thing... on the surface, though, it doesn't seem to reflect very well on "the system" as it is structured, especially given the brutal housing crisis that we're in.
