I'll try and start doing updates of the Denver street and 111 tower from the train and the new u of u building from my phone soon. I should also be able to catch some other buildings in my updates, but they will just be one picture at one angle.
Any corporate center is disgusting - and not merely because they take away from the downtown. I get we can't have every commercial office space in downtown SLC. The problem is that corporate centers are space wasters and don't engage any city whatsoever. They're isolated, one-trick monstrosities that 🞵🞵🞵🞵 life out of any city they're located in.

Imagine if, instead of a corporate center, these offices were built in a downtown-like fashion for the area? Mix them with parking, retail and residential.

But this is such wasted space.
