Clearly that message didn't get out to the skyline. First, this project is exempt from the vast majority of city planning code restriction - thanks JPTA. Second, the tower is crucial to fund the transit center and you know how the green whackjobs love transit. Third, the debate is about whether the final upzone will allow a 1000 or 1200 ft tower.

When is a more plausible question and barrier.
