Looks terrible in photos, no doubt about it. Any chance there will eventually be a taller building to the right of it to draw some attention away?
Perhaps with some surrounding infill and a little bit of time this will settle into just being an ugly, but unremarkable background building. NYC, Paris, etc all have tons of terrible buildings that just get lost in the surrounding chaos of the city.
EDIT: I see someone commented that the lot next door is zone for 85 ft. So that will help.
