The faux Mansard roof could work as long as they don't use that ugly green metal that has been way overdone around town! (Waterfront Place, Letson Court, Renassiance etc). If they're doing the mansard, they should spend the bucks and put something of quality in there. The mansard on the Waterford for example looks fine. On the whole, from the limited info available, this looks like a decent development.
