    Are 202 residential apartments needed? Does the ghost of Canterbury Council live on? Surely with all the new apartments within 500 metres of Canterbury station we need schools, childcare centres, open green community centres not more flats.

    I'm continuing to lodge protests on principle lately, not because I believe that Council, the Joint Regional Planning Panel or anyone else further up the planning food chain actually reads the comments or cares less about what's happening out here. Of course this isn't an isolated issue, it's a Sydney wide "dump".

    If the buildings that are going up were stand out examples of architecture and obviously incorporated eco friendly solar and water collection, or lots of green space, we might go quietly. But they aren't.

    What happens to all these extra commuters when the heavy rail line goes offline during the Metro construction phase?

    I agree completely with Wendy Peddell and Michael Thomson. The new units especially the Charles Street developments and along Canterbury Road look like trucking containers piled on top of each other. Canterbury Road is already very congested and has a very poor surface. Parking is a problem. There is no parking near the station. Many people park 5 blocks away and walk. More green space, solar, energy saving facilities should be included. Each unit has a large carbon footprint due to need to use clothes dryers, no compost facilities and efficient waste management.
