I think that location is actually pretty good for a tower, shadowing is probably going to be very minimal to any properties to the north. |
Technically I live in Ramsay but right on the border of Inglewood/Ramsay. Personally I feel this development is fine. Right now you have a 2 gas stations, Blackfoot Diner, and a huge parking lot in the immediate vicinity - not exactly "historic". It's not like it's getting built right along 9th Avenue or near the bird sanctuary. Sometimes these community associations can be very pedantic. This quote is very telling to me:
