Perhaps it's just me, but I almost prefer a bland, but perfectly functional building to an avant-garde one. I'm curious about how it will date as compared to Rogers in Edmonton.
There's many 1990s-era arenas that still work fine, despite being bland. I can think of some really awful stuff from the '70s that was cutting edge then, but just was atrocious aesthetics wise today.
