The only problem with knocking it down would be that you'd never be allowed to put up another of that height anywhere near there
To be fair, you could do a much shorter development on that property with the same or more units. People seem to forget that lower density can have the same number of units if spread out a bit. It's why I don't love podium towers, you get these pencil thin towers.

Are those all bachelor units in that building? They look dreadfully small!

A bit of colour would have been nice, but this has turned out quite good. A huge improvement, probably even more so on the inside.
Are there people already moving in? I saw lights in the windows of the lower floors last night... could have been due to interior work that's still under way though.
