I dunno. That rendering really doesn't look "towering" to me - there's still plenty of "green wall" above the buildings. It's certainly no worse than the Claremont and other accesses cut up the escarpment (that's a pretty low bar though). I'd like to see a rendering of the whole site plan though, as seen from, say, Stinson.

As for traffic, maybe this is an opportunity for the city to horse trade - institute some traffic calming measures we couldn't afford last round (pedestrian activated crosswalk at rail trail), new rail trail connections, etc. If the developers want to profit, they can pay to appease some of the concerns.
