Technicolour condo in south end

A resident comments on a new proposal.

soltice

I hope I am not the only tax paying citizen in Guelph that can see how ugly the technicolour “Solstice condo” at the corner of Gordon and Edinburgh will be. I am appealing to all councillors to please step up and not allow this bizarre colour scheme. We know it will be overrun with students (because that’s how it is being promoted) but please let’s not make it look like a clown building. If you want to see how poorly these colours look on a large building just drive down to the lakeshore in the Mimico/ Long Branch area. It appears Guelph is headed towards student condos on every corner but let’s at least make them look good rather than allowing cheap and gaudy. SR
