Two things struck me reading through the zoning/text amendment for this project (Z-26-20-7 and Z-TA-5-20-7 respectively if you're interested).
1) Text Amendment to maximize height from 80-140 ft to 285 ft. Someone has a good ole' height regulation map of downtown which, if I remember correctly for this area, is 1300-1325' ASL. It's good to see an upswing in amendments for density and height restrictions (i.e Garfield House, Asta) because it means developers are willing to push the narrative for more but it's also telling of the Downtown Zoning Code needing to be updated to reflect current trends.
2) Zoning Request to remove historic designation from property. OIC wants to knock down rear wall and roof from the structure, entailing that it will lose its HP status in order to move forward.
