Some of these people will never be happy because they want things that are completely unrealistic. The 9 storey height is already a good compromise between the highrise scale of some nearby buildings and the lowrise scale of Schmidtville. I predict that residents won't have much of a problem with these when they're built because they're across the street and they're being built to the north.
I am happy that they're using granite. In the past when councillors were voting on developments they often didn't even really establish what would be used and there'd be vague language like "stone-like material" (the architectural equivalent of "imitation cheddar processed soy loaf").
