Paul Merrick of Merrick Architecture made that statement. What I believe he was alluding to was with the new bridge approach, this property will feature as a point of entrance between downtown and Vic West so whatever they do here they want to ensure it is fitting of being prestigious enough for a unique entrance to downtown. Same goes for Northern Junk.

Is that necessary? I think anyone coming over the bridge, any bridge that replaces the Blue Bridge will know they are entering downtown. Just like they have for the past 100 years. I don't think they need a reminder or a grand entrance.

My understanding is federal regulations require a minimum setback of 30 meters from the low tide mark.

The City of Victoria is exempt from the Riparian Set Back Requirements.
The set back is as defined in the zoning.

So I could be wrong but wasn't some sort of covenant put on the lands to the south of Mermaid Wharf that would not allow their views to be compromised? Just wondering.
That said if I owned there I would be ecstatic to see these lands developed even if it did get rid of my view because the view right now is not always that good...

I would assume that the Songhees would love to get some land on the inner harbour again.

I'm glad this site is being put to use and I'm sure that some small, we'll tanned and slightly inebriated people will enjoy living there.

But if you do spend more time at the pubs than at home then I can see the appeal.
