Like I said, I'm a 5 on that one too. It, like the Met site, features buildings with great alley views and dreadfully remodeled fronts. I like the building marginally better than the Met, for reasons mentioned upthread, but I'm not really jumping for joy about that one either.

And yeah, in my mind a parking lot is a great place to put a building...even though a lot of those parking lots were neighborhoods and businesses that were taken away via eminent domain decades ago. I'm a big fan of infill and adaptive reuse.
