What I don't like are the colours. This is some seriously ugly stuff. If you're dead set on keeping the post office in its original colour scheme then match it up top somehow. Otherwise, re-clad the post office, and give this project a chance to not be the most mismatched-looking building on the peninsula.

Yeah, there needs to be at least some of that light stonework in some vertical columns to tie it all together. Otherwise it just looks like they're pretending the post office is the ground.
