I gotta say this does not seem all that out of whack. My parents live nearby and I drive down Lampson every time I visit. That area of Lampson is a strip of apartments and is separate from the single family homes that make up the neighbourhood between there and Saxe Point park.

The only concern I would have is that it seems like an awful lot of traffic being funneled through a single entrance/exit but that is a design challenge for the developers rather than an objection as it mostly would affect the residents of the complex.

You can't compare this to Cordova bay. Most of that development is SFH and some townhomes.

This is why I'm comparing them. The developer is keeping the density of that development more in line with that of the surrounding neighborhood. The density of the English Inn development is way out of line compared to the surrounding neighborhood.

And house prices remain extremely high. Densify, or build out...those are the options....we are running out of "out".

Construction at this site is well under way. I’m not sure of it’s final form after approval from Esquimalt City Council. Can anyone provide specifics?

The approved drawings are here: https://www.esquimalt.ca/sites/default/files/docs/business-development/developments/DP000072.pdf

Not much info there other than the site plan, though
