More Carpet in FCP
Did you make it into the building when it had the nifty 70s carpeted elevators? ("Nifty" is to go with "70s"). If not, they were a blast - thick berber carpet (beige of course) on the walls of the elevators - taken out around 2000 I think and replaced with the current ones.
There is an excellent model of the re-clad complex on the ground floor near the Timothy's, incidentally in the same spot where they had the demo of the renovated elevators more than a decade ago.

What in the world are those pinecone things in the hallway leading to the elevators? They look totally out of place.
Are they doing anything with the top of the podium. It would be nice to see a green roof up there.

By having this current tallest buliding refinished nicely, the skyline already looks a lot better and stylish(?) than before !

The concourse is quite nice now. They did a much better job than the concourse reno of the Sun Life tower which looks afwul, IMO.
That Longo's really needs more cashiers at lunch time.
