A comment by an astute commentator back in 2016:
If a 6-story building could make it feasible to preserve/restore some or all of the old building then this option should be on the table.
I know, I know. Allowing a slightly taller building would threaten the heritage of the neighbourhood. Yadda yadda yadda.
Anyway, as a neighbourhood apartment building goes it seems fine, although I'm not digging that retaining wall/stairway on the one side there. It's just really too bad this needed to involve the wipeout of a heritage building.
I think I'd be very happy if the church were still there and this was being proposed for that weird little strip mall building on the opposite corner.
This project is among the first in our region to take advantage of the single egress stair design.
