I’m glad they went with the many different colors and finishes to break this up. I’d say the best-looking high-density residential building since at least The Crossing (personally I prefer this to the faux historical Crossing buildings).
Still waiting for those sidewalks on Legacy Lane and Declaration Street, though:
Sean- This an example of personal preferences. I appreciate the asymmetry of the colors, materials and shapes. There really isn’t a lot that can be done with a building like this, but I think Jasnoch did pretty good. Now, there are other preferences out there that are another matter. When your preferences lean toward symmetrical balance and limited variation of materials, then a building like this will drive you nuts.
Amazing: John and I almost agree on something… I love the new apartment building and the use of color and varied surfaces shows that MUCH can be “done with a building like this” … as a matter of, IMO, HAS been done.
Please, Oh PLEASE! Let Jay Jasnoch design a beautiful new Fire facility, built CHEAPLY , with industrial materials, but with the benefit of a skillful , creative eye.
Kiffi-Thanks. I think that if we had a chance to really talk about some issues, we would find that there are at least as many things we would agree on on principle as those things we disagree on. I’m glad you like the building, and it would be just great if Jay could design a new safety center. Hopefully we can see that in our lifetime.
If you’re going to go big, you might as well go bold! Here is a fun example from the Netherlands: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mvrdv_silodam.jpg
I am not happy with the look at all. For one thing, it is too close to the sidewalk and street.
Bright, the distance to the sidewalk and street was very deliberate. You can read about the project in an earlier thread on LoGroNo: https://locallygrownnorthfield.org/post/10128/
I like the looks of it. Bright, I like that it’s very close to the street.
