Permits falls in line with this being the use. I am guessing an indoor kids gym as the use, or something like that. I also could not understand why the bank would put another branch in the same building that already has one.

The cylinder with the cornice anchored the corner better.

I don’t hate all PoMo, but the Castle-of-Inverted-Top-Hat-Turrets look shared by Y&E centre.

Ah, much nicer a choice than the heretofore standard "awkward stapling of a rectilinear glass box"
