As a template it's great. But if what we're seeing is what get's built it is not acceptable. Especially the weird offsets on the windows between the middle blocks of windows.
Maybe arched windows and some decorative brickwork on the podium, set back just a metre or something, and design the upper and lower podium facades differently- it's a long wall- or at least extend the cornice.
Middle segment should be curtain glass or they should shell out for engineered stone and put some more thought into the design.
I'll be conciliatory and say I like the deep eaves and penthouse floors. But they should just copy the west side on the east side.
