Another issue with that design is that the bricks have seams all over the place, you can't really tell but vertical lines cut through the wall and it just looks like poor workmanship.

The design is by a local architect that really doesn't design anything worth looking at. We have better firms but I guess that one was the lowest bidder. The building has a history of that though: the concrete columns that were supposed to support two more floors were turning to dust during the renovation.
