The proposed development's size and scale dwarfs the heritage-listed terraces along Gloucester Street including the much visited Susannah's Place Museum and Shop.
It is important to note The Rocks is Australia's pre-eminent heritage-listed precinct where keeping the historical integrity of the streetscape is crucial. The 9/10 storey buildings proposed on both Harrington Street and Gloucester streets are not in keeping with the surrounding streetscape's height and scale and look totally out of character.
These buildings's height should be reduced to a 6 storey minimum so they do not dominate the historic streetscape and surrounding heritage terraces.
The development's height must be reduced so it falls within the agreed height limits of the area. These height limits have been set to protect the character and existing streetscape of The Rocks, one of the only heritage listed precincts of Australia.
The height limits have been set as maximum building height which may be achieved by any proposed development, not as a starting point.

I object to the proposed height increase of the new building.
The new building should be at the same height as the current building that stands.

On the highly prominent location in the city, it would be highly desirable to build an iconic building Sydney will cherish. A building that is unique and will complete the streets and embrace historic fabric of the Rocks precinct. This includes any new residential apartment in this area. The current proposal is just like another apartment I've seen before somewhere.

Whilst I do not object to the existing buildings being demolished and/ or re-furbished... I do object to the suggestion that they will be replaced by a higher building.
Please preserve the " height " of the existing buildings and not allow these new buildings to be any higher than the ones that are being replaced.
This is a sensitive area and the "ambience" will be destroyed if the existing height restriction is allowed to be increased.
