Tbh the design is PRETTY CLOSE to the circa 1950s building - probably as close as you're gonna get in this modern age.

Agreed. I am super excited to see how pier 8 pans out though as it's not often you get to build up an entire huge plot of land like that all at once and make all the buildings as a result the same uniform style.
I am also excited to finally be able to walk through this area, as it has been sealed off to the public for so long and was just a sea of pavement and ugly shacks. It will be beautiful when the tall ships come in and it's all developed - great for people who live there too and can watch from their balconies and rooftops.
Also as an artist I am looking forward to maybe showcasing some of my work down there
