Bernard Morgan House - an updated Google View

At the end of January this year Taylor Wimpey held an event at which they presented their initial plans for the replacement of Bernard Morgan House in the form of some very misleading drawings.  I took the proposed building footprint together with height information gleaned at the meeting to make an approximate 3D model of the proposals.

I also asked Taylor Wimpey to let us have a 3D model of what they actually proposed.  I've asked for this several times since, but Taylor Wimpey decided we could not have a 3D model, even though it should be as easy for them as a couple of mouse clicks to export to .kmz format.

Now the planning application has been submitted.  Taylor Wimpey still refuse to let us have a 3D model of their proposed building, but another interested party has repeated the exercise I did and has made a new 3D model based on the submitted plans.
