There are certain aspects of this project that I like, such as some of the podiums and I like the northern tower (though it does look bulky). I'm not keen on the green and orange in the windows, but I'm okay with this.

This is pretty much along the lines of what Public Works was hoping for for Tunney's Pasture. Although this isn't in Tunney's Pasture, there's going to be a whole line of highrise condos on Parkdale. I'm really hoping, though, that we can get highrises elsewhere and not just along Parkdale. It would sort of remind me of Seoul and how, despite being covered with mid/lowrises, along main boulevards there's a line of highrises that you can pick out from satellite imaging.

Hintonburg and the community association aren't happy with this at all!

Any news on Urbanism Ottawa? I know that people from this forum started it, but I never hear anything about or from them. I'd be interested in joining.
