While no expert, it seems to me that the first few pictures show that its style is what some refer to as neo-facist. Faceless and cold it reduces the individual to a cog in a box. It reminds me of buildings built in Germany and Italy before and during ww2. It could have been designed by Albert Speer.

Yeah! The Union Station project started last Tuesday (with 2 months of utility relocation work). Did you all see the latest renderings at:

I walked by the Four Seasons today on the way back to the bus stop after class, and snapped a pic of the spire which is currently on site at the base of the tower.

Wow. I feel the weight of the law upon my by just looking at these pictures from 1000 miles away. I hope to God they plant every single one of those trees in the rendering, for if not I will surely be smitted and cast into a firery pit of brutalist architecture.

It's a beauiful Complex and a very
nice addition to the location. Even though it's in the Center of Downtown, I dont feel it's right on your face.
If Im ever sent to Jail, I want to go there and enjoy the view to courtyard.

Dori,

I assume you are being sarcastic!? I agree with you if you are; what is the point of those? They take away from the windows instead of adding to them! Where is the parking? Underground I hope, although the way these look they could be the parking structures. I still think they are nicer and more cohesive than Steven Holls original design. Any idea about safety or green aspects?

Wow, what architecture! Especially those commanding doodads on the windows. Are they little tabs that close off the windows in the case of a hurricane? And I especially love the cutsy blinders that go with the doodads!

Speaking of "lovely" beige towers in the Golden Triangle, I notice that Beauvallon is under repair already. Good ol' Craig Nassi, how this town misses him.
