I object to the proposal SSD 5752 for the following reasons:
1. Award Winning public buildings being removed;
2. the Goldsbrough being an iconic and heritage part of darling harbour will be obscured from the public view;
3. no consideration for aesthetics on the western or rear façade of the International Convention Centre (ICC);
4. removal of current convention centre walkway without a viable alternative public access;
5. Such a development will inevitably lead to developing a hotel accommodation for the users of convention centre - Any new multi-story buildings in the area are grotesque developments that will make the area unusable for locals and visitors.

Object strongly

The plans that have been released show no regard to what
apartments in the Goldsbrough will lose or what other users
of Darling Harbour will lose in the new proposal.
Furthermore, any views of Darling Harbour from our window to the left of the ICC will then be blocked by the proposed
twin hotel towers, leaving no outlook to Darling Harbour
for us.

We (my husband and I) strongly object to this development proposal and the objections are clearly outlined in the attachment.

The submission is in the attached PDF.
