Our car dependency affects us in so many different ways.

Has there been an authoritative/official comment that the garage facade is finished as-is? I could see that being the case, but its also plausible to me that this is the base for something looking closer to their original design (say, if the fins/surface texture was intentionally left off during construction to avoid damage or because it was a longer lead for fabrication).

Someone might correct me, but I don't think so.  Has anyone been in touch with the devleoper?
