Agreed. That fact that it faces the Eisenhower probably played into that calculus. What does it look like from the other side? Is there also a huge, blank-walled podium fronting Van Buren?

those brick blank walls you see are typically fire code requirements, things x feet from adjoining properties have to be certain fireproof materials
I would like to see this one from the street, considering this is the view from the Eisenhower, it doesn't look all that bad, I sort of see the podium as a tribute to the John Hancock building
