Cyclesmith and a baby store are immediately to the north and Compass Distillers immediately to the south so it seems a good spot to put additional retail.

To me the house looks like a smaller fraction of the lot front in the rendering than in street view. The distance between the wall of the house and Compass is quite small. The house is a good example of retaining some of the character of this neighbourhood.
You make a good point that while this building stands out height-wise compared to the Agricola buildings of circa 2020, it won't be so exceptional when the current round of construction is completed and there will probably be other developments like it in the future.
