I was prepared to hate it, but it kinda works in person. It steps down nicely from the Donohue Building, which (thankfully) has windows and face brick on the south side already. Plus that snazzy screening element offers a similar fine grained texture to the historic ornament.



The other lot, though, is slated for a 2-story Roots Pizza. Which sucks, and not just because the pizza will be terrible.
