Drove by it on Thursday and it was less bad than I thought it would be. I’d take it over the crap they built on top of Northhill mall.

Yeah, it's not the worst I've seen. It looks better than the rendering IMO, although that's not hard to do.

Thank God they chose a clean white instead of some other nasty shade of yellow. Any colour other than the white they chose and this would be considerably worse than what it is. The white with black windows is kind of cool....

I drove past this one earlier this evening. IMO it's not overly bad, at least not as bad as I was expecting. The glass is going up on the podium now, and it's coming together. The bright white tower looks striking against the blue sky.

The bright white building surrounded by dirt and cement reminds me of the middle east.

The urban form reminds me most of the Regency student housing tower in Denver. Random high rise student housing in a sort of island in the middle of several highways.

That's not the photo I would lead with on the "come to the U of C's exciting urban campus" brochure ...

Yeah, nope.

I'm disliking it less, the more I see it. I way prefer it over that one in Denver.

When I drive by it I just tell myself that it's the worlds coolest vertical server farm.

Here is a pic I snapped while at a red light of the podium.

Not bad looking. I expected worse.

White is nicer than beige. The pattern still gives me a headache. The wall is definitely being built; an ugly precedence for future development
