Just a huge mistake, all around.

Flame away.
I'm actually at least partially, maybe substantially, in agreement. wish the towers were going instead of the garden apartments, and don't like what I perceive to be a somewhat haphazard disruption of the look and pattern of PM (tho I admit it's been a while since I've looked at the plans).

I'm a bit more hopeful that people will use the M once it is diverted into the complex itself.
