Nearby they did a decent job incorporating a new building with some old ones. Its a shame they went with all glass. I’m so freaking bored/tired of all glass curtain walls. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/yimby/original/3X/8/a/8a4b612a62eecd98adf355072cd52d750d7f2012.jpeg) ---
