I don't mind the building and I think it will be a nice addition to the neighbourhood once finished. It is an odd shape, especially the tower part. For those of you who don't know the history of this building, six floors were added on after construction had started. There really should have been one more setback maybe half way up to make it look more balanced. The two-tone brickwork (see post #444) at the base is a mistake and will be corrected later on. The darker brick was supposed to be a lot lighter. A stain will be applied to that brick to lighten it up. The stain will last about 25 years. The green coloured window frames were chosen to match the Cresford building in Summerhill (Thornwood).
