This is complex.

Saw that work at burned down trattoria Vittoria in the market has started behind stone facade. The owner dom Santa guida just did the new red brick condos at the foot of bank st bridge in old ott south. Wondering what he has planned for the market site given he has set out as a developer now.

What is the best shawarma in ott? My vote goes to shawarma king at bank and waverley.

Will this be the new tallest in dt core? Just what is the height limit in core? Seems 30 stories is the cutoff. Does this represent a new allowance going fwd?
