Overall the plans for this complex are amazing as i've mentioned before in the past, but the more I look into this, the more I believe Phase 3 should have it's podium reduced in size.

Especially when we compare it the Phase 1 and 2 podiums, and (to a certain extent) the neighboring development which will no longer have towers fronting Lake Shore. It looks almost comical how overbearing the Phase 3 podium looks and it's just blocking the amenities on the two previous phases.

I didn't quite understand the context until I looked at the renderings again I do agree that they should shorten the podium as it is about five floors taller than either of the other two and does look out of place

...goodness, that podium is a bit of a monster. Which is impressive as that's the smallest of the three towers in real estate. Do they really need to compensate for that?
