Like they totally ruined that view!
B. It's not that much more massive than a block of pre-war brick midrise buildings all nestled up together, like the rest of Columbia street.

So massive! Much Yuck!
They probably should have just clad it to look like old buildings (like the Eaton's Centre in Victoria, and yes, I'm calling it the Eaton's Centre on purpose), but I can see why they would want to add some variety to the city.
But when you look at it from another angle (the angle from where most people who see it are), on a sunny day, it actually looks kind of nice.

And I like how they retained the original building in the design.
And 3, how are you supposed to hide a theater and a Safeway anyway?
