I live on Alder St, right behind the building site. I bought my house in 1998, before the codes were changed to c2. Yes, the sun will be blocked, and all privacy in the back yard will be lost. I get to look out the windows and see a 5 story building, with all the lights and sounds. The traffic on Alder St will be much heavier, and parking will be difficult. The construction, which is going to take a year, is going to be noisy and dirty. The people that are for this project have no idea how this is going to impact my family, including Mike Coughlin.
