The Breithaupt Block Phase III | 11 fl | U/C

Yeah I can understand the the direct neighbours being concerned about a development in there back yard. and I do have sympathy. I do question if the direct neighbours were the people that took this to the LPAT. The person I spoke with lived in the " neighborhood" but nowhere near this development. I am also glad all that was compromised was a floor reduction/ no parking garage.
