Despite the building being mostly paneling, I like the way it's turning out. The colors they chose for the brick and panels work well together. If you told me a year ago that the majority of the panels would be gold, I would've expected something flashy, gaudy looking but the gold panels look good.
I wish we could have plants/flowers/benches on the sidewalk like you see very often in European cities. It would make the area more lively and feel more organic.
