A multimillion-dollar redevelopment of historic Mount St. Angela may hinge on the view from the veranda of an old house.
Victoria council allowed a development on the one-acre site at 923 Burdett Ave. to lurch partially forward through a rezoning approval process on Thursday. But a divided council stopped shy of giving a full nod to the project when Mayor Alan Lowe, holding the deciding vote, said he didn't want a house at 924 McClure St. -- part of the same parcel -- to be relocated from its south-facing viewpoint to a northern one.

Did we already see this? (from Hallmark Society Newsletter - Spring 2007)
It may be argued that developers have already ruined the Burdett streetscape with the dense towers currently being constructed at Burdett/Vancouver/McClure. But if we concede defeat every time that happens, then we might has well throw in the towel entirely.
Right. It may be argued that the Chelsea ruined the Burdett streetscape. Dense towers. Eyesore.
Edit looking back in 2019:
Correction: It may not be argued that Chelsea ruined the Burdett streetscape, because to offer such an argument would be nonsensical and inane. Nor may it be argued that the lowrise Chelsea = "dense towers":
