The project caused division when Over-the-Rhine residents raised concerns about the height of the building, the project s design, and the possible lack of affordable housing.
Maurice Wagoner is the president of the Over-the-Rhine Community Council. Wagoner said Mayor John Cranley and City Council refuse to see how important affordable housing is to people, specifically those affected by the pandemic.
