I wonder how long-lasting the colour is in the precast cladding panels. Concrete pavers are manufactured with vibrant colours, but the colour usually fades over the next 2-3 decades towards the grey end of the spectrum. They end up looking dated and disposable.

I wouldn't be surprised if they fade in the timespan of years vs. decades. I put down some tinted concrete pavers last summer, and while I'm sure the quality differs significantly, I've noticed fade after just one year.
 
Beautiful building BUT I wish they could have avoided those small narrow pieces of back-painted grey spandrel at the bottom of the windows of the top section...it's as though it's mandatory to work a bit of that into every building in this city
