My main concern with this things is 1. Not intense of enough use....preferred the earlier more intense plan.
2. It eerily reminds me of the "newish" 28 story condo in Evanston with retail in the base, just cut by 2/3rds


I think materials will make a huge difference on execution and impact......if it is clearly brick facade its is going to look sterile; on the other hand if they could produce a more authentic Chicago brick type look....maybe not so bad
