Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 1776573, member: 716"] I'm no artist, but this would affect a lot of views. Most uphill areas to the southeast (from Adams down to Clarendon) that currently have a view of downtown and the lake will lose part of it. I could get better shots from private property, but here's a public view: [URL="https://www.google.com/maps/@43.0426271,-76.1303838,3a,75y,293.62h,70.64t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sCr3JgFpNYCX_sXtaJiF7wg!2e0!7i13312!8i6656"]Google Maps[/URL] Use Whitman as a frame of reference - this building will have similar massing but be twice as tall. As for view toward the hill, a lot of properties on Madison, Harrison, lower University, and nearby blocks have views of various buildings on the row, especially the Crouse bell tower. A number of those will be lost, too. I'm not personally opposed, but this'll be a negative change for a lot of people. [/QUOTE]
