  I find it quite sad that it seems to be impossible to debate such an important issue based on the facts alone. There are obviously good arguments to be made, both in support of and against the development, but to read posts talking of building on Connaught Park, Pencester Gardens and Langdon Cliffs "all the way to St. Margret's lighthouse" is pretty pitiful. It does nothing to move the discussion forward. For my part, I see no problem with the Farthingloe development, and the proposals for the Western Heights are nowhere near as substantial I had imagined. If this development were to lead to greater conservation of the WH heritage, with the potential of increased tourism that that could bring (especially with the proposed War Memorial), that must be a good thing. It may just help bring an end to decades of decline in this town. That said, I can understand why there are genuine concerns about these developments, as I share many of them
