The perforations could be for the vertical black pieces of cladding that we're going to go on that part of the podium. Since they were different sizes that would explain why the perforations are of different sizes

Drove past today, I think the perforations are pretty clearly decorative. It looks something like https://archello.s3.eu-central-1.amazona...0.8854.jpg . I think at night with the parking garage lighting it up from behind it'll probably be pretty cool, but it's definitely quite different from what was shown in the render.
