Appeal filed against proposed Exchange District development
A city committee will hear an appeal to a proposed addition to two Exchange District heritage buildings next week.
According to the property and development committee's agenda, the president of a nearby condo complex has appealed the decision to create a nine-storey rooftop addition above the Sanford Building and Maw's Garage near Bannatyne Avenue and King Street.
In a letter, Alan Tate said the proposed development is out of scale and out of character for the area, and would impact the proposed development of the Exchange District as a National Historic Site.
The letter also claims the development could physically impact neighbouring structures, particularly his own building on Princess Street.
A permit was granted for the project in April by the same committee.
The matter will be heard when the committee meets June 11.
