If you haven't read my other thread, this redevelopment is potentially causing the demolition of Lonsdale House, one of Melbourne's examples of fine Art Deco architecture.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) is the latest time to submit an opinion on the permit application. You can email:

Personally I object to the whole development, but at the very least I think Lonsdale House should remain. Their reason for demolition? Widening the laneway so trucks can get through.
