I don't think the white panelling adds any value here, particularly since it doesn't highlight the principle entrance; elsewise, the architectural expression is decent.

I'd rather not see surface parking, but if it must be there, it would nice to see permeable interlock pavers as oppose to asphalt. I also feel those at-grade units facing the parking lot could use a bit more landscape buffer.
