The gray brick on the podium looks great. I'm not a fan of the beige multi-colored brick.

The loss of depth on the grid made a huge negative difference. Too flat now.

i wonder if vetro/sasso were all one colour, the dark green and the nuera crimes against humanity were completely black they would be less offensive.

Vetro/Sasso could have been much better if the developer had left the grills off the roof and used silver enamel in place of the green stucco. The tyndall stone is unique for a high rise, and definitely not cheap.

I don't mind Nuera. More of the crown could have been transparent glass and maybe the sand colored stucco could have been silver enamel like used elsewhere on the building.

Curtis Block looks great. Recessing the black portion would have been better, but additional to the increased cost, would have meant more surface are to lose heat and absorb water

Agree with above. Nuera could be saved with the cream stucco changed to white or charcoal and the spandrel in the crown (if they couldn't do more glass) changed to white or silver as well. Sasso and Vetro would be better if the green stucco was changed to black. The fins don't offend me that much.

The light brick reminds me of the brick used on the Livery in Inglewood. It's a nice change from the standard red brick common to the other podiums in the area.

I love the base, the light bricks and dark bricks alternating almost makes it look like the towers were built over pre-existing buildings.

A couple more pics of the podium. Pretty much what's been posted, but figured I'd post them anyhow.
