Generic, ubiquitous, forgettable.

Bravo

I'm ok with this. This building has been generic, ubiquitous and forgettable since birth so really just a continuation. Let's see what they do with the empty land.

 

[IanO]

I'd disagree with that.

Given its prominent location, simple but classic design, piece of art and green, it stood out for me. We have a lot of generic beige, precast, earth tone and now have shifted to a lot of white, black, grey and don't need more of them.

 

[Didama]

Not sure if we have any shortage of vomit green in our buildings either. Black and white can look sharp if done right. I'm hoping they keep the artwork though; I'll agree there.

Ultimately this building will be overshadowed by the new neighbour anyways.

I think the change is very nice and will complement the new tower.

Much, much better!

 

[IanO]

Much, more generic!

 

[Jack Harris]

is the bigger tower beside this building in the renderings supposed to be built as well or is that a different project

 

[archited]

Let's help 'O Neg. get out of reverse to experience at least neutral.

 

[IanO]

It's not pink, but the original colours had character and presence, this is forgettable.... but not offensive, other than to the original intent.

 

[David A]

While I would have preferred them to keep the original colour, it looks better than I thought. I suspect a main goal is to try blend in with the new proposed building or not contrast with it too much.

I think adding a new building here will be good for the area. It made no sense to have a surface parking lot here (well after the 1960's).

 

[Stevey_G]

I personally think it looks far better than it did previously. Much more chic and will integrate with the tower much better than if the color scheme was left as is.

 

[IanO]

Interesting.
