In my lexicon of Architectural aesthetics there are only two categories: good, and better/best. In other words: Architecture that is capital “A” Art - and then there is that which is not. This is NOT capital A architecture. Capital A Architecture that rates the better/best distinction is done often enough in NYC: so for that I am thankful.
This is a generic building that surely meets all the necessary financial & programatic requirements; it terms of the ‘looks’ of the building it rates a solid GOOD.
I am OK with the fact that most buildings are not the product of ‘high-design’ Architectural firms: I see nothing here to either denigrate or celebrate.
A brighter, more attractive color would help; but this one looks good enough. So now, we can see something finally rise on this site…
