Anybody who is happy with the architecture, planning and design of Liberty Village, has really low standards. If you're happy with 3rd rate, that's exactly what you'll get. Is there anybody out there that loves green glass/spandrel? lol The traffic there is also way too fast moving and dangerous, for pedestrians to feel safe. The worst is trying to cross Strachan Ave, at East Liberty. I always have problems crossing there. I can't wait until that site gets a proper crossing light.
The plans for the area east of Strachan Ave do look pretty good, so let's hope that comes to fruition. That outdoor pool looks incredible, with the bridge and platform. That will do more to change the bad image of Liberty Village, than anything to the west. I'll be very happy to see that Metro parking lot gone but I wish the whole complex would be redeveloped, with the metro rebuilt into a residential tower. A stylish hotel wouldn't hurt the district either.
