Ben somehow snuck this thread in when I wasn't looking.

312 units - 4 elevators so 1.28 elevators per 100 units.

Could it be that their plan reflected the general zoning guidelines in place? Have to check that again, but there was broad initial approval for these plans. And that may also be a result of some of the other barnacles the city is being left with by the developer species.
