When I saw the renderings, I thought the colour would be a little too loud/obvious for this stretch, but now that I see it in situ I'm thinking it (like 109Oz) is tastefully/artfully enough done to make a positive impact. Plus, I think the somewhat muted tones here (i.e. mustard instead of neon yellow) make for a nice counterpoint to 109's louder accents.
People would hate it here in San Francisco. Buses and Streetcars cables and most streets have a mess of cables leading to houses. It's only really in the newer areas that it's gone underground...like you I barely even notice unless I'm looking for them.
Drove past the development on Saturday May 12 - They have removed the fencing on Dovercourt and fixtures and floor lighting have been installed in the lobby (front entrance is on Dovercourt).
Do we know what retailer will be setting up shop? I've heard Rexall?
