Personally, I think it should be a fabulous addition to the site, if it comes out like it should. It's a shame about the building that hosted the O'Conner Smoke Shop, that was a nice old building, but on the rest of the site, it's replacing a couple of poorly built old strip-mall-esque developments and a surface parking lot. Overall, it's a nice- and distinctive-looking building replacing low-density development and a parking lot in the middle of our downtown core, exactly the kind of development Ottawa needs.
