Improvements can be made by eliminating the features that make it a poor design:
- x-out brick design must go
- layered brick design must go....have a look at the ugliest building in HRM, Churchill Apts. a tin layer cake

- turf the bland slider windows
- open area unter Rotunda is very stark c/w stark concrete wall
- poured concrete pillars are tacky and will look like they belong in an u/g parking garage
- precast trim on lower level would work better on a surburban strip mall....although I wouldn't wish it on them
- the thoughtless mix of styles and textures are confusing to look at and should be stopped by HxD design review committee
