This one went up fast.

Spandrel colour could have been interesting as white accents, but in true G+C fashion, the panels are inconsistent.

I think this is easily G+C's best. I like the white spandrel and brick combination. Let's hope the top 3 floors are quality too.

Actually, the spandrel is the only thing I dislike.

 

[Yegger]

the white spandrel is way too jarring and essentially negates the warmth provided by the brick. Black spandrel would have worked better, especially considering the mullion colour.

Arches are making a comeback.

One thing I took note of yesterday: with their vertical incisions, are the brick piers meant to "reference" the bank which this project replaced?

I don’t understand how a client can order a traditionally styled building and manage to overlook or not mind the misaligned spandrel panels. It’s pretty shameless and I’m kind of amazed both developers and architects seem to be ok with it.

 

[condovo]

I don't see any misaligned spandrel panels. Am I missing something?

In AlbertC's first picture, second level, just left of the corner perhaps?

I wouldn't call that misaligned but okay.
