Hello, welcome!
They are asking HRM to increase height caps on this site in light of the housing crisis, proximity to transit connections/schools/recreation and services (Village on Main) and the NSCC campus across the street.
They are proposing three 27-33 story residential towers and a 3 story commercial building.
There's actually a pdf with more info and a rendering of this on HRM's Shape Your City website, under the Regional Plan "New Requests" subsection.
Scroll down to the entry for Sunrose/MainStreet proposal, and click the more info link.
If anyone is more technically savvy than I, maybe they could post the rendering here. I am on a mobile browser and it's a pain to sort out image links.
