I live in Inglewood and am in favor of the development. RNDSQR has proven they are forward thinking and I feel they will deliver a great product. To some degree I understand the ICA push back against the plan but ultimately they are replacing a used car lot, which was an eye sore and regularly blocks pedestrian traffic on 12th street, and retaining the heritage aspect of the site with the CIBC Building.

I don't recall the ICA being so opposed to the new residential developments a block down. Granted they don't have the same height as RNDSQR Block but are just so cheap and awful to look at. They aren't heritage at all but not modern or forward thinking. The Torode/former Strategic development in particular is really bad.
