I think the massing was great. About the same height as the neighbouring buildings. It would only block the view from the RNC HQ, and it's only a view of the Irving tanks across the harbour. I would prefer to see a small retail bay as well, but I think it was all residential. I wonder how it would have looked from Longs Hill.

The proposal made sense .. It was modern (could be updated maybe with a touch of star of the sea architecture) and most importantly it was in scale and near other buildings with a modern nod to them (Fire hall, The rooms, RNC headquarters)
