It turned out better than the render in my opinion which is a rare feat. I do think there is a little to much going with the design, but overall for this region its nice. I think once the uhaul and ziggy's cycle get redeveloped it will look even better as the big blank grey walls will be hidden.
Do you think it is aging well? It also has a bigger podium with recessed tower (King facing).
It appears to be aging ok, only time will tell. 1 columbia on the other hand has been aging terrible and it started off bad. They used the cheapest possible materials for the cladding and windows. the dark cladding has sun fadding and the light cladding has water markings. it is truly an assault to the eyes. 1 columbia gives NIMBY's a branch to step on. They can just point to what happened along king between columbia and hickory as a reason to appose development. (or at least that is the reason I hear from my older relatives)
