Mona Lisa Residences (NYCC, Great Lands, 28s, Northgrave)

[lead82]

Those villas on Olive Ave look horrible, they don't even match the tower at all. They seem very foreign to the area. That beige-cream stucco material is just hideous.

^"Coming together nicely"? Hell no, this is seriously ugly. Monet and co. would be appalled.

Monet on its own was OK ... but as scarberiankhatru suggested, reproducing it to create Mona Lisa was just a really bad idea ~

my statement "coming together nicely" was in reference to construction progress, not representing my opinion on this project in particular
