Massing and facades look good, just needs some variation in colour from my point of view.

A quick run through trusty Photoshop to give it some variation:

Needs some kind of a roof on top. Looks too much of a box like structure. It would be nice if they recess back the last few floors then maybe add some kind of modern type of rooftop to it.

If only G+C projects looked so good.

Who else is a huge fan of the interior courtyard of this project? It is positively European!

Looks rather inaccessible and walled off. These are two rather large U-shaped buildings. I would prefer to see more breaks in the buildings on and above the ground.
 
This is bad and a redesign should be considered. I know there are other parks down here but this is an opportunity to add something extraordinary. A site this large needs more.

This site appears to be very similar to the scale of Teardrop Park in TriBeCa in Manhattan. With four tall towers, one on each corner, a gorgeous public space is created in the centre.

We could do this here too.

The facade is nice, but it falls into the too-much-of-a-good-thing trap, and ends up looking monotonous.

They should switch it up between brick and metal facades, IMO.
