Will they ever build it?

If you live anywhere within 10 blocks of the absolute centre of a city of 1.5 million people, you should expect that maybe at some point your single family home might be shaded for a few hours a day by a large building... Just saying.

Especially if you live along the highway, where these types of buildings seem to be well suited.

We can't be identifying every single family home and then place a December daylighting height restriction cone around each one. Sorry. People can move if they need more daylight.

I used to live along Bank, and one of the new condos resulted in shade until 1:00pm every day. I got over it after a couple weeks of 'oh, that's unfortunate' when the formwork blotted out the morning sun. My plants moved to the west windows, where I also got sun until about 6pm and it was blotted by the next building.
