Re: “Sewage plant as work of art,” editorial, Feb. 15.

I’d never heard of the Maishima incineration plant in Osaka mentioned in the editorial on the proposed appearance of Victoria’s sewage plant. While the Japanese facility is very interesting and colourful, something like it would indeed look gaudy on this piece of waterfront.

One way to soften the Victoria building’s impact: Do the same thing the developers at Uptown did to make the big wall you see going north on Douglas Street less imposing — plant trees.
