Appeal rejected
Of course, the increase in the height regime displeased the neighbors, who contested the number of floors provided by the designer.

“The construction authorization is done with respect to the average height of the neighboring buildings and the character of the area, without the difference in height exceeding the immediately neighboring buildings by more than two levels. Immediately neighboring buildings are those located next to each other, on the same side of the street.” Consequently, “the height regime proposed by us – concludes the investor – exceeds the character of the area by only two levels, i.e. from P+4E+M (5 levels above the ground floor) it will reach 2S+P+6E+PH (7 levels above the ground floor ).”
