The notice from the OMB says that Mizrahi is taking the city to the OMB because they wouldn't make a decision fast enough.
Decision about what? It was passed by Council.

I'm all for this tower getting built, but to conflate its realization with "the advancement of the city" is a bit rich. The drama!
They have a recently revised proposal on Bay?Their recently revised proposal on Bay is much better.
LOL, I never said the reputation of the city 'hinges' on this, but many would agree that any tower that would be the tallest, at a key intersection, and of a fine design (albeit not the best EVER) is a clear advancement.
To clarify, was referring to The One, not Aura. Are you comparing G&C with SNF??

I get your point and it has a lot merit. They define the city skyline. They add to the aesthetics of the streetscape. I still can't get passed a private residential/commercial development as an advancement.
I'd concur with ADRM too since nothing he said contradicts my point. I've said as clearly as I possibly can (2-3 times) that architectural merit is vital.buildup: what ADRM said.
