I love that building with its coloured glass and cornice feature. The way it stands in harmony with the surrounding buildings in spite of its modern architecture is great. Hopefully the addition won't ruin it.
 
Is it possible that the addition will go on top of the existing building?
 
An interesting network of spaces/walkways/laneways around 290 Adelaide West has developed. I hope the renovation sees this an an opportunity to create another mews network.

Looking west from the northern edge of 290 Adelaide into the courtyard space created by Post House Condos.
