Question 6
The densities appear to be very high compared to other developments in Cambridge / other large Towns & Cities and not in keeping with the surroundings. Recent examples of high density housing, at a very much lower level, such as Orchard Park have not been particularly successful in retaining a sense of community.

Definitely not, as comment No 1 style of development is not suited to Cambridge. No one wants to live in high rise flats anymore.

No need for tall buildings at all.

Don't care, you will build what you want anyway.

Overall heights look too great. Residential max should be 5 and commercial max 10. Also try to avoid uniform 'block' feel (U.S/E. European) style. Some lower rise to give areas of more familiar human scale.

13 storeys is way of out character. No way you can compare a new build flat to Kings College- your new flats will have far less architectural quality.

No. Proposals are too dense. Proposed heights are too excessive. Danger of creating a ghetto. Also more thought needed on screening the negative visual impact beyond development area. Mistakes at disastrous Kneighton development and Eddington development will be repeated. Both are visual excrescences on the landscape.

Milton residents will be able to see the buildings, which will have a visual impact on the area as a whole.

I disagree that this site should be used at all for housing development of any sort.

Buildings too high.

Mutli-storey buildings are too often ugly. I feel lockdown has demonstrated young families should not be housed above ground floor level and without easy access to a garden.

Too high, too compact, too many residents.

Higher buildings on the north of the site to reduce overshadowing and block A14 noise.

Could look quite dramatic from a distance (might be visible from John Lewis restaurant window or Grafton car park roof. Thought should be given to red light on tallest building (39m) Although requirement is 80-96m (200ft) In consideration that light aircraft fly into Marshalls at present (until they leave!) Other tall blocks may also need warning lights.

Very unhappy about such tall buildings. I feel they are totally inappropriate in the area. Please do not compare to King's, which is a beautiful iconic structure.

Such high density housing does not provide necessary private open space (gardens) since Covid19 people clearly need gardens. This form of dwelling will lead to future problems: see comment 1

I don't know anyone who would want to live in a 8 or 13 storey building. Most people want their own house. But is that a pipe dream

Looks ugly like CB1 and Eddington
