Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the air conditioning units on the character and appearance of the surrounding area
  • the effect of the air conditioning units on the living conditions of the occupants of 36 Sixth Avenue regarding noise and disturbance

What decided it

The front air conditioning unit's prominent and visually harmful appearance on the street elevation, combined with unresolved concerns about the accuracy of the noise assessment and potential unacceptable noise disturbance to neighbouring occupants, meant the development could not be approved.
