The Metz (Schneiders site redevelopment)

[panamaniac]

It will energize the area. Bring probably more than a thousand people into the area, as well as at least some retail and restaurants. That is a big difference from the abandoned factory we have had for the past 15 years.

Certainly I'm not expecting any architectural landmark buildings, but more people living in the urban core is still very much a good thing in my books.

If the concept drawings are any indication, you are wise to keep your expectations low - the towers look absolutely brutal!
