I am reminded of a recent controversy in Ottawa wrt a condo proposal (six storeys, attached to a church) that had to be reduced in height by a meter of so because it would be visible from the Rideau Canal. The advocates based their objections on the Canal's status as a UNESCO world heritage site. I confess that I never "got it", as there are all kinds of buildings, old and new, visible from the Canal.
