Presented at the Design Review Panel with some positive changes. 2/3 of the Parkin-designed legacy building is retained (1/3 rebuilt under a re-designed residential tower), big improvements to the streetscape, and a much nicer (square-ish) building envelope for the tower which now occupies just the south portion of the site.

Most of the panel gave it a thumbs up.

Original plan was to demolish the handsome 15 storey building and replace it with a forgettable new office building and a very wide residential tower.
