That would be found at street level wouldn't it? I'm confused. How did they otherwise fall onto the roof? From nearby taller buildings, I would assume?

Thin towers on top of fat podiums == smack into the top floor (roof) of the podium instead of the street.
i hate people who say anything is better than what is existing. If you get it wrong, you're looking at a reminder of wasted potential for the next 50+ years.
You could add Richard/Robson to parking lots disappearing, its currently a private lot for Telus but those are still spots that will gone and will need to be relocated.
They have been doing renos on Sinclair centre for along time now, does anyone know if the green metalwork will be removed once it's done.

I hate you too! Downtown is almost entirely wasted potential. It's difficult to get upset over one incredibly ugly lot getting a standard office building at this point. Unspectacular design =/= embarrassing.
Hell, it's not a condo. That alone makes it kinda exciting.
The overpass is an eye sore and is extremely unflattering to stately architecture of the Sinclair building.
You got that right! I wonder if all this could be redesigned "post modern" or something to complement the adjacent Sinclair Centre and Waterfront Station. Overpass, new building and all. (probably not; whatever)
The overpass itself is not great but it's the weird chainlink "roof" that always looked super ghetto.
As someone who worked on Granville and Pender for a long time I appreciated the overpass... although in the later years I just walked through the Canada line station when the weather was bad (always).
I'm hoping the green fencing will come down after the repairs are complete. It was put up to catch anything if it fell of the building, but they've been doing work on it and are almost complete. I'd hope that means no more need for the fencing.
