It's really come along since a few months ago. It's honestly kind of starting to grow on me. Has an artistic element to it.

Only a few months away to grand opening ?

This thing will look great at night! I'm sold! (day time, not completely sold, but getting there)

It looks a lot better with the lights on!

Nice shot! It'll definitely brighten up church hill square at night.

A better cladding material would have made all the difference I think. Looks better than before, but still a major disappointment.

@Mountain Man That's it for me, too. Even white Alucobond panels with some EPL colours tossed in would have looked better to me.

And I don't get how that is. Zinc is not a cheap material, yet somehow it just looks cheap here.

Here is a higher definition shot from their site. As I've said before, the SAMU white cladding would look amazing on this!

Are those books on shelves at the top floor?

 

[Mountain Man]

That's Zinc? it looks like typical cheap standing seam metal cladding. Ouch!

Very cool building. Better than most renos of late, can't wait to see it without construction fences around it, and walk inside...

I think you may have stumbled upon the most elusive, and perfect angle of the Stanley Milner Library (IMO anyway). Good shot!

It's getting better all the time...
