It helps, but for my tastes the design is too disjointed and busy. The 'multiple boxes stuck on boxes' look is a little overdone IMHO. Plus, not overjoyed by the selection of "precast concrete panel" cladding near street level.
But, as always, I remain optimistic that it will turn out really well, and it will create life and density at that intersection that does not currently exist now. Overall a plus compared to current, and I'm sure some will love it as they do with The Doyle (another project that I am less than enthusiastic about). Ha ha... afterall, it's not all about me...
