Might I suggest a world class 'Klondike Mike' Dirigible/airship rooftop station/terminal atop the library. Plus a book pick-up/drop-off through the colored panels(not necessarily easy to manage, but just saying) , and an easy transfer available (for a small fee) to the gondola/Lrt station via the slide down the industrial cladding roof onto the welcoming avenue below. Or no.

The best view to me is from standing directly north, and NNE. North, you avoid that seeing the ugly bottom right (tank threads), and from the NNE, the front right pointed overhand feature looks damn cool.
 
From Saturday afternoon. I'm finding I really enjoy taking pic's of this building. It's not a boring building. I know a lot of people dislike this project. While I'm really disappointed with some of the design choices/budget issues, etc, I'm liking what I see more than not. Thus I'm upping my vote 1 notch to 'I like it'. Even before its doors open to the public ! ?

I enjoyed checking up on the library cam every now and then to see how things looked from high up. However, they took down the cam, and the page was 404'd for a long time. Just checking the site today, it seems like the cam is back up on the main page, for those interested.


Also noticed a new youtube video they had posted. In the video there are rays of colored light emanating from the panels on the roof. Not sure if it's just flair added to the video, but would be a cool aesthetic feature if it had beams shooting a short distance out into the sky at night (or maybe the ambient light will create that effect to a certain degree)
