Considering the inn on the plot originally burned down, most likely the city owns it. Also on the parking lot side the original building wraps around making it so you can't really but anything up to that building - the corner is in a sense "rounded"

Perhaps an Odeon? Although that's more for singing.. I still say convert the entire roof of jackson into an arborium /greenhouse, even if it's glassed in - its a great way to bring a forest back to the core. Station guards at the steps and inside and vet who goes up there. It has the potential...

At least it'd still have arena in the name - center could mean it's anything - far too vague.

Urgh they just have to ruin everything lol..

*revolts* We should make it look like a roman coliseum :P

Can we get back on topic? This is tiring - we are here for architecture and meaningful debate on issues, not what people think of other people on here. He's not a troll - it's what he believes - you believe differently - you've both said your piece - move on.

On the subject of how you perceive people in relation to your own ideology, no ordinary person on here cares about what you think or how others make you "feel" on here. This isn't a woke forum to my knowledge. This is a forum about architecture, not how much you hate other users on here. This is...

I never had hope to begin with.

I was JUST thinking that lol..

need a reference image: What's up with that white stripe in the glass in front? That wasn't in the original render.. The glass is not looking as nice as the renders.. it's tooo.. mullion-esque

I said it LOOKS plasticy, not that it IS plasticy. I don't care WHAT they're made from it's still ugly as hell lol..

It looks so plasticy lol..

Well, a lot DIFFERENT than it does now is probably the overall more accurate claim - different isn't always better lol..

It's a new way of marketing the ghetto basically. Easy to clean - just hose off the blood lol..

If you wanna see an amazing transformation go inside the mansion nightclub - aka the old femmebassy - the place most of us wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole it was so gungy and gross.. the bathrooms were just horrendous.. now it looks like something out of toronto.

Yeah it's like ellen faircloud building close. And that's a very uncomfortable feeling.

So all affordable housing is now trademarked to look like plastic colorful panels in designs made in google sketchup? With a slightly shipping crate-esque vibe for flair? I dunno why I expect more.. it IS affordable housing.. so.. do whatever..

That glass tower is still one of the best looking ones in the city.. even if they never did finish the cap on the top..

Oooh windows being installed - brick will come soooon :) thoooon...

I will admit I have not visited it yet - have to take a wander down and see.. don't often venture that way anymore
