The street level looks like it belongs in a bad strip mall, not in Chinatown, and the top looks like they're trying to hide a garage. I don't see how the redesign is a benefit. Why not clean up and improve what's there?
I don't understand this at all. Hopefully they get sent back to the drawing board.

Looks like you got your wish? Honestly, I prefer the clean lines of the first proposal over the mish mash of the second.
