I lived on Mellon years ago, and that building always stood out as a "wtf were they thinking with that?" whenever I passed by.
It's almost as if the new townhomes are attempting to incorporate the "architectural style" of it into their design...

That horribly remudled building looks like it was originally constructed in the late 1910s or so. If it were ever restored it would look great and I'm sure was originally cladded in brick ornementation.
And so now that the city owns the former Penguins land does this mean that development will start hopefully next year?
