I am concerned by the modification plans to Newcastle Private Hospital. The proposed 2 floor addition will significantly increase the height of the hospital to much higher than tree height. The Croudace building on the site is a heritage building and always had view to the northeast, above the tree line. The extension will interfere with the original view to the northeast significantly, and prevent views of the ocean and beach that this site would always have had. I propose that the Newcastle Private Hospital be limited to treeline height, in the same way that the John Hunter/Royal Newcastle hospital has been limited to treeline height.
