Was trying to think of the best description of what came to mind when I saw this one and I think quirkiness is absolutely spot on. Agreed that it's not necessarily in a bad way either.

Not sure if it's been noted yet or not but excavation has begun in earnest at that site in Kensington along 10th St where the old mid-rise building was condemned and torn down by the city. Not thrilled with the design but still happy to see this gap in the retail street wall get filled in.
