Charles St GRT terminal redevelopment

If I building like this goes up, I'll be choosing between moving or never seeing the sun in my home again. I just want to live in a 3-5 story neighbourhood, friends.

The reality is that this is the core of the core: these are the blocks where there is bound to be the highest density and the tallest buildings. It's great for some, no fun for other people. But if you do want to live in a mid-rise neighbourhood, I expect that (in the longer run) it will need to be a bit further from the core.
