Exactly. Tweek the materials and it can be a different building. Hopefully this gets sent back again. It still has a very cheap suburban feel for me. Here's another proposal just down the road. Much better use of masonry and stucco IMO.

That would have been sweet

Judging by the size of the windows, this is going to be rough...

i was a believer that they were using prefab pods but that window seems to be closing, literally

That MoDA concept was cool! I was indifferent about the current design, but now I hate it after seeing the MoDA rendering. Also, the name "The Block" suits the MoDA design so much better. Names that might suit the current design better: The Twinkie on 4th; The Banana on 4th, The Lemon on 4th, The Daisy on 4th; The White and Yellow Building on 4th.

I actually forgot about the MODA proposal. I was thinking back to my Skyscraper page forum days and there was a really funky proposal for this site that I think was being marketed as commercial condos. I wish I could dig up the renderings to show but that forum is a nightmare to navigate when you're trying to find one piece of info in the mega-threads.

There's gotta be some wicked thermal bridging on those balconies, unless there is a clever solution. I've honestly never even thought about it considering how uncommon steel frame residential is. Anyone know how to combat that?

I was driving by today and noticed that they had installed some charcoal coloured brick on the side of the building. It gives me hope that the podium is going to be decent. I also think the scale is going to be spot on for this location

Im hoping this is one of those building with a lackluster rendering leading to a better than expected finished product

It won't be hard to beat the rendering lol.

Brick looks great! Anyone know if this will have units for sale?

Agreed. The bricks are 100 times better than what they look like in the rendering.
