I would like to see brick for the upper section. Compliment the Morse's Tea building and keep the historic feel alive. If this were done I would like to see a special heritage preservation tax credit. 50% of normal rate for five years.

The brick on the Founders Sq. tower blends in with and compliments the historic street level buildings. Peter Kelly give Ben a hertitage tax credit.
