Manly View from dad's window

Thought I'd add a familar view. Dad was telling me that the Council has a proposal to build on top of the Surf club. They are going to extend the first floor over that end section you can see there above the toilets as well as build another floor so our wonderful view is going to be really badly obscured if it goes ahead.
There is a chance we can oppose it because they have to ask for community comments and reactions to the proposal. It would really affect the value of the unit as well.











I took some other photos as well to show how much view would be lost if they go ahead. If you see the height of the flagpoles on the club- the next floor would be at least that high so most of our view would be gone. We'd only see a tiny sliver of ocean left of the large palm tree next to the club building. I'm hoping we can oppose it but it would need more than just our objections probably.
They claim they want to build a museum of some kind there but Manly already has one at Manly Gallery.
