The fins are gone (so no matchy-matchy theme with 725 Granville (above Nordstrom) and VCII.
The area above the historic facades are still a video screen, so they won't look like a rooftop mechanical enclosure (per first render below)
although it would benefit from some variation in the height of the panels or some other design aspect (i.e. raised panels like Davie St. Safeway)
to add interest when the display is turned off or in disrepair
As a mid-block site on its south end, I don't think they should be allowed to have expansive glass curtan wall on the south facade
since that will impair the future redevelopment of the adjacent sites on the corner.
