A few months ago, when some of the architectural designs were revealed to the public, most designs appeared to portray ultra-modern oversized and squeezed-in buildings. I heard someone say that one design looked as if the new events center was an out-of-town whore wearing a tight black blouse, a push-up bra, a leopard print mini-skirt, knee-high laced-up boots with hooker heels, covered in an inch of make-up, sporting a multi-colored wig, displaying an unusual amount of testosterone while patiently waiting by the train station to pick up her next trick. Someone else said that another design resembled an elaborate inter-galactic spacecraft that landed on earth exactly on Highfield Square. Ultra-modern styles have been done and redone for the past forty years, they’re all out of date, at some point they all look the same, a déjà-vu feeling. An ultra-modern events center in downtown Moncton will totally depreciate and age the existing buildings and contrast with the rest of Main Street and downtown and suggest that all these older buildings need to be modernized.
