Another one from the NIMBY file. https://ottawa.citynews.ca/2024/08/28/residents-harbour-concerns-about-26-and-35-storey-towers-in-barrhaven/
These people just throw random shit at the wall to see what sticks.
"Some people had concerns over the height of the building including what happens in a fire.
Carol Throop, a Barrhaven resident, was worried about if elevators aren’t working.
“I don’t want to run down 36 flights of stairs,” she said.
You don't live in the building Carol! Do you think this is the first tower to ever be built in the history of civilization that has more than 5 floors?
That said, the newspaper itself is probably the most NIMBY thing in this story. They run their headline about "concerns" but there's barely anything in the story about that. Most people are in favour of it and just want to ensure there's bike parking?
