I left a comment in favour of the rezoning proposal.

I am certain that this rezoning application will be approved.

At the same time, I figure it doesn’t hurt to have on the record people supporting building multifamily housing across the street from LRT stations to balance out the NIMBY comments: where will people park, it will create too much traffic, it is too tall, it is too close to a school, etc.

(The first two comments were from NIMBYs, mine was the first in support. )

This might sum up WEM's attitude as it was told to me directly from an insider there:
"People who take public transit aren't going to be buying $8,000 purses."

This really feels gross to read. I take public transit to the mall and I work there at Apple. I have spent thousands of dollars there.

Ugh.

I take it that this is the next Civida project now that their Lendrum Place project just wrapped up?

Can't imagine a bigger footprint for a high school....4 floors! Btw, I just noticed it got named very recently as it was always just labeled as the "new SE High School / Meadows HS.

The names of the new schools in the city have always been a little strange . I'm sure its something of notability tho.

Yah this shot doesn't show the whole site either. The north have is 2 story.

At least 2 other high schools going up. The new Catholic one in Heritage Valley, which is supposed to be open next fall. and a new one up next to the Castledowns YMCA, I believe they just broke ground.
