They did that with an old brown-brick 10 story eyesore in the Beltline in Calgary as well. I don't have any pics right now but it is a marked improvement. They added some nice vibrant red panneling up the sides, all new windows with vivid white trim, I don't think they replaced the balcony railings though which really fucks with the new feel, as the railings are just brown-painted metal. Bleh.
