As a local resident I strongly object to this development proceeding in it's current form. While the current state of the abandoned Leagues Club is unsightly, the scope of this development is so far beyond what is in keeping of the area to make it in itself an eyesore. The height proposed is well past that anywhere else in the area and should be limited to that approved locally along Victoria Road such as recent mixed-use developments on both sides of the same major road through Drummoyne. I do appreciate this is somewhat lowere than prior submissions, however, it is still way too high overshadowing the whole area around it.
Further, the local area, roads, facilities and amenities, including schools, hospitals and other essential services are not in a position to be able manage the enormous additional residents of these units.
In the meantime, the owners should be compelled to clean up the site until they can put forward a development proposal that is in keeping with locality and the capacity of the amenities available in the area.

I object to this application for the Tigers site. The proposed height is far too high (12+ storeys) and completely out of keeping with the heritage streetscape in the surrounding Rozelle / Balmain area.

Furthermore, it will create significant traffic impacts with no new public transport developments to support the additional volume. There have been numerous approvals for apartment developments in the area already and local traffic is now almost unmanageable at certain times.

I understand the original precinct with apartment towers was approved when there was a plan to put a metro rail station near the intersection of Darling St and Victoria Rd. This may have supported the additional density, but given the metro rail station was cancelled, the assumptions underpinning the original approval have changed. So that site can no longer support the same building densities!
