Quote:Some neighbours were offended by newcomers proposing what seemed like a plan to better their close-knit street by building a better house.
That's a weird claim. "Their house will be newer than ours, therefore it should not be allowed under any circumstances." Like...what?
Also, "socialites" is a laughable term to use here haha. When I think socialite, I think rich people living in Manhattan, Soho or Canary Wharf...not living in a bungalow in a mid sized Canadian city.
