Urban Shocker
Doyenne
Why?
Because of their unique and historic nature.
It is a practical observation based on my last visit there a few days ago, and is little different from the practical observations posted on this thread by others who are familiar with the Dstillery. You really should open your eyes and deal with what's in the real world rather than the theoretical world that exists only in your head. Why not visit the Distillery and see for yourself what the rest see?
The site as a museum, you mean?
Does the Distillery need a signpost? Assuming it does, I'd argue this collection of 30-40 storey towers doesn't fit the bill.
Hey, why we are at it, lets knock down part of old city hall and put up a big tall condo tower. It will serve as a beacon so you can see where old city hall (or whats left of it) is from far way. And besides, up close, you really won't notice it.
What? You want to preserve it (and its character) as much as you can? Obviously you just want to turn it into a museum/are afraid of tall towers.
