The Victoria Park Heritage District has been around for a long time.  Many of the properties have changed hands since its inception.  I would wonder if there would be similar aspersions cast at condominium owners who have been living in a tower for 25 years who are suddenly told that some aspect of their building was being changed and that they shouldn't complain but just deal with it?

Nobody's property is being changed, though. A housing development was proposed, outside the borders of the Victoria Park Heritage District, and several hundred metres away from the nearest single-family homes -- and across the street from several existing apartment buildings.

VPNA fought tooth and nail against this, and achieved a significant downsizing of the project -- and the elimination of all the included affordable housing units. Both were seen as victories by VPNA.
