Love it. Good scale and good use of the space.
The area's getting built up nicely. (much to the dismay of all Catalina townhome residents)

It's 'OK' but I actually wonder if they considered going down one level for parking and having a larger building. The one parking lot next to the heritage homes/offices probably could be sold off for a lot more than what the 6 spots are worth. I feel that this was the minimal plan for intensification to be honest.

I hate to see so much surface parking so close to King St. - and especially when it is steps away from an LRT stop.

It is too bad to see so much surface parking; especially when there is lots of unused surface parking, especially in the evening, across George street at the church and law office (or even Allen Square) or across King at the funeral home. I wonder if they can talk the city in to even lower parking requirements than they are asking for if they negotiate a shared parking agreement.
Isn't that small parking lot the same space the
City envisions as a connection to the potential new park on the pumping station property?
Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.

I heard from a little birdie that the design of this one has changed significantly and does not look anything like the one shown here.

Any hints at what that means?

Is the little side parking lot (random) the George street property?
