Anxious to see what the glass on the east end will look like.

I generally think they've done a good job of breaking up the massing of this podium. I much prefer this to the suburban big box look of the Royal podium.

I feel the way that this development tries to break up the overwhelming size/scale with articulation and differentiation in design and materials is misguided. It has no concept of providing a human-scaled experience and feels truly suburban big box in all the wrong ways

Remember when we thought we were getting this? Whomever is responsible for the switch should be castrated.

Yes. I am kind of surprised how this is turning out. The original design was more in keeping with the new look and feel of East Village.

Perhaps a dumb question since the large podium is still being built - but is the grocery store still slated to be included in the first phase?
