I like it, but I don't love it. This thing screams "brutalism" without the concrete. I wish it would be split into two towers on each side of this building on top of the office space instead of a shorter, single apartment section. I do appreciate that they are saying a pedestrian path will finally connect Market and Chestnut along the river (not shown in render). In an ideal world where money was no objection, I would love to see them build over the CSX tracks with a large plaza that leads down to the river park and trails.
