While it doesn't really mitigate my sadness at the loss of the Boyd, I've been pretty excited about the truss. I think it's a beautiful thing and serves to elevate the collaborative work of the Boyd's architects, engineers and ironworkers to a true sculptural work of art, and makes for a wonderful tribute to those who built our city.
Interestingly the new structure includes 4 new trusses of somewhat similar shape on the second level, directly under the tower portion. I wonder whether they too might be exposed, although not visible from outside, in the finished project.
