The Breithaupt Block Phase III | 11 fl | U/C

I don't by any stretch hate the new building, I think it's a great addition to the city. But the older one was clearly better, and I can't imagine that a 1fl reduction in building height actually changed anyone's view.

They should have just proposed 13 floors in the first place, then settled for the original 12 floor plan.

I’m not even sure I’m joking.
