The LAPD HQ will look lighter and more open from three sides - 2nd, Main and 1st streets - primarily because those facades will be dominated by glass. But there are some similarities along the Spring St. side. It's kind of funny that it turns it's most "closed" side to the LA Times building. I'll bet the architectural reviews from the Times will make a point of complaining about that...
