Thanks for those, Lexus.

It's a pity about Solhouse, but great to see the progress on the other towers currently in progress.

Why is the perception of the visual aspects of this building so positive? It looks rather prison-like from the outside, in my mind.

I took a look inside one of the units and was surprised to find very little vision glass. Perhaps a 1/3 ratio of glass to 2/3 dry wall. I wonder why? Most of the surrounding buildings have that ratio in reverse.

The living rooms seem to be wide but not deep, with no ideal location to place a television opposite to a sectional. Again, a weird choice of layout.

I think energy guidelines limit new buildings to 50% vision glass.
