Nice contrast to the flat iron building (material-wise).

I am still fascinated by the panels. I have driven and walked by and love how they pick up different light. Even though the panel is on colour.

They had an exhibit which I missed, with all the Covid goings-on, but someone made a video of the exhibit, and there are also photos of the art.

Their website:

which leads to the exhibit:

You can get a good idea of the interior from the video, and artists also wrote about their art

Love the transformation, but had hoped for a hipster cafe called The Peep.

Well hopefully if more residential comes to the Quarters more projects like this will spring up.

^ we need dozens (and dozens) more of these types of transformations.

This is a demonstration that you can in fact have good design for a relatively low cost through retrofitting ugly buildings.
