Their evening shots look great with that glulam/LVL or whatever it is on the commercial space.... and would have really set this off if that was incorporated into the main floor.
 
An architect goes in for a job interview and sits down with the developer.
The CEO of the development company asks him, “What do you think is your worst quality?”
The architect says “I’m probably too honest.”
The CEO says, “That’s not a bad thing, I think being honest is a good quality.”
The architect replies, “I don’t care about what you think!”
 
I really, really like how this turned out, but wish it had a bit more warmth/invitation at the main floor level.

ie. wood
My gf lives not far from it and always comments on how she finds the whole development very "ominous" looking. Personally, I like it.
 
CRUs getting filled up! Some solid stuff. Really great offerings all around.

Years ago it was a bank on every corner, interspersed with book stores, record stores and then coffee shops popped up everywhere.

I suppose it is a sign of the times, but I sense saturation and some things becoming too competitive to make a good return for the owners.

How about something that is missing, like a small hardware store somewhere downtown? There would be no competition for miles.
