Pappageorge Haymes’ L-shaped design features a mostly tan masonry exterior, floor-to-ceiling windows, and dark metal accents. The exception to the tan brickwork is a white masonry and a glass storefront facade lining the ground floor. At the southernmost corner of the ninth floor is an outdoor amenity deck that’s encased in an open parapet extending from the street wall.

looks better that the rendering
*than
Totally agree. Rendering looked depressingly cheap/bland for this prominent location but it turned out to be a pretty handsome building.
Me three on that! Very simple, handsome building. The two side sections with that little bit of cornice makes for a very handsome building, so much better than all the boxes with punched out windows we see.
Well done!
Agree. It came out pretty okay. Still craving an all-city cornice revival program, but this does wonders for anchoring that blocks corner.
Cornice revival program should start at the City/County building. It had an awesome cornice.
The ground floor is far from finished with zero activity regarding with same for weeks now.
Looks great. Now lets build the next one, or next 10, or next 100.
Any word on the Stans Donuts that was supposed to go in at the base?
