I would like it a lot more if the back end cladding was in more tuned with the Robarts Library proper. It should least make the attempt to compliment said building and not contrast it instead, IMO.

They drywalled the soffit on the cube projections? I like the form and the clean glass, but this thing is lazy as all hell once you start to pick it apart...

So much this. I am hard pressed to think of another contemporary public building by a major architecture firm that is this poorly detailed.
 
I thought this was supposed to be open in November? By the look of things, I'd be surprised if they open in January.
