Pretty positive the Tannery is an average height of 14 meters. As is the Google building. Liberty village as well mostly contains 3-4 story former factories that originally drew the tech companies. They have been rezoned and are now building large condos (and tech companies are moving out).

From what I have seen 3-4 stories is good height for development.

You're right from a residential point of view. I wouldn't want 63 meters of glass and concrete blocking my view. However, it'll likely be approved since this in on an LRT line, and intensification needs to be done around that area. Really, this is ground central for the LRT, people living in that area will be surrounded by castle in the sky in about 10 years or so.
