This should not proceed

The heritage value of the current building. It is a reasonable example of heritage architecture. I feel any development should preserve all of the existing structure
2. Traffic effects.The area is swamped with vehicles and there is inadequate street parking as is. Cars of visitors and residents will add to congestion as they seek parking. The proximity to public transport does nothing - the majority of Australians own cars and need car parking. The commercial premises require parking for patrons.
3. Inadequate green space
Boroondara has been inundated with ugly new multi level developments. The majority of residents if asked are firmly opposed to these. However, Malvern and Toorak provide examples of multi level development performed at a higher standard, or even properties in Hawthorn West. Most save a strip of land at least 2-3m wide at the perimeter of the property and plant trees and other greenery, also planting greenery on rooftops.
4. Shadowing of neighbouring buildings.
this adds to the fear that these towers are becoming the slums of Boroondara.
5. Inappropriate height and density for Boroondara.

The style and visual bulk of the new addition is not in keeping with the style of the area despite some planning mistakes previously
