The Royal Ontario Museum wants to build a 40-storey condominium tower on the current site of the McLaughlin Planetarium, and says it expects the development to generate controversy.

The tower, Mr. Thorsell said, will have “very high, very beautiful apartments. It’s going to be the most beautiful residential building in the city — and the most expensive, I would think.”

The Globe and Mail suggests the tower plan is neccessary to pay for the ROM’s shiny new addition.
