^ Can't say I disagree with you Vis. I wish Collegetown Crossing wasn't as big as it appears. All the huge apartment buildings along Dryden Road tend to dwarf the older buildings, seemingly making them insignificant. Guess it just makes me miss the "old" hood. But I don't find it totally unappealing (as you mentioned, the facade).
I didn't realize until you pointed it out (and I blew up the rendering some) that there's parking between the building and Clinton Street. I thought it was a drop-off/pick-up area. Sure would help the urban wall effect if it were closer to the street. But I'll still take it over the current view.
