I've been wondering the same thing for a while now. It looks like "ribs" were added and some of the original concrete panels were either removed or have had work done on them, but only part-way up. Given the other changes to window cladding and balconies I wonder if the plan is to re-panel the concrete, and Homestead is just taking its time with the job? Perhaps the lower section required more immediate work, given the rust streaks apparent in the 2014 view?
