I agree, there's no need for a 40 floor tower here (although I certainly wouldn't oppose such a proposal). I usually don't go for the revival of old style, but if done right, I believe a building that looks just like the Classic Sherbrooke apartments like the Linton, The Acadia and the Ritz would be a great addition. Kind of like the Simpson apartment tower, but without the prefab panels. I hate prefab.
