One of the points made at the 2/20 joint meeting...

...by the chair of the Respectful Planning PAC, Laurel Decker, was that if we allowed 65 ft. buildings next to the Gulfstream, we would be covering up the western facade of the historic hotel.

Well, guess what - this picture was taken from the corner of South Ocean Breeze (O Street) and Lake Avenue.  It was taken while the banner on the building was up.  You can't see it now - that is my point.  The existing buildings block view of the empty, vacant and unused hotel already regardless of what would be there in the future.  So, pick another argument to hang your hat on...
