I am really surprised this was approved without more of a fight.
There's really no residential immediately next to it. That probably helped.
Anyone know what's happening with this? 2.5 months since it was approved and it looks like business as usual at the site.
I took a closer look and that glass atrium/lobby will look really cool at street level!

Per this article, the existing Monk Office business is expecting to move to the newly-acquired Island Blue site in late 2023, so I suspect that we won't see any action on the hotel until that time (or later). It might simply be a case of honouring the existing business leases on the site. See https://www.timescolonist.com/business/island-blue-sold-to-pair-of-greater-victoria-companies-4945506
