ArchFan 323 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) Interesting comment.  Yeah, it's got a curved variation on the bent 1980s shape of the building on Sage.  Doesn't have the classic 1980-ish half-circular balconies, though.  But, it does have a faddish element from the late 90s, too.  Don't know how to describe it ... the white concrete frames on the facade that enclose two stories and make them seem like one at first glance.  There's at least one building in downtown from that era that has those, though there are more around. Despite the borrowed cliches, I still think it's better looking than the place on Sage.  At least, if the rendering is a trustworthy guide!  :-) Edited September 5, 2013 by ArchFan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ArchFan 323 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Aren't they condos (Ambassador Way)?  Redeveloping that site makes a lot of sense, but I imagine it would be a lot harder to get so many individual owners to agree to sell.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
