Funny, does anyone remember what happened the last time Concert did a "modern" box emerging from a "historic" base? I seem to have forgotten...

Point taken!

You mean this?

I assume he meant The Berczy (which really isn't as bad as some people here try and say it is).

I must say that is absolutely the least flattering photo I have ever seen of Berczy! The lower floors are really not too bad (in my opinion) but this top part (particularly when it's almost all one sees) really is ghastly!

The bottom part is great. It's the top part that I find totally unacceptable.

I'm hoping (really hoping) lessons were learned and we don't see a repeat of the Berczy upper floors. It looks like we won't have to wait too much longer to find out which direction this will go in.

Hence:

Except that in the case of Jazz the acceptable part of the base was 'inherited' and not built from scratch like Berczy.

Now that's springs here this project will start to accelerate a little faster.

 

[innsertnamehere]

I feel its been going pretty quickly as is.

 

[Miscreant]

Yeah, it has been. And it's going to close off that Front St. terminus really nicely.
