I was bewildered and incredulous that the area I live in has lost a great opportunity to have such a sleek, sophisticated condo complex. It's such a depressing intersection and the initiative seemed to be such a stroke of genius. Businesses surely were looking forward to this and residents like me could enjoy seeing a revitalised corner. How could this have happened? It reminds me of the Fountainhead with fear of the new and beautiful. Hope there is a movement to reverse this decision. How did this happen?

I would have to agree with your assessment of the sound mind of the city councilors to turn this one down. The builder has done a great job promoting the building and making buyers aware of the preconstruction opportunities to buy. Too bad. Maybe another reader and resident of the area can comment further on the reasons for resisting? Hey Mark, great post and commentary.
