Met the wrecking ball
Another fine building gone
What will be in its place?

Our Mid-Century architectural legacy is disappearing at an alarming rate.

Passed by yesterday afternoon - construction seems to be progressing pretty nicely. The massing of the building really doesn't fit the surroundings, though.
Would've grabbed some pics but was busy.

^ Yeah, that doesn't help. Might just be all it is - still feels 'off' somehow.
I was actually being facetious. I like it being close to the street. I'd like to see more suburban buildings sitting up front with their parking in the back.

Don't get me wrong, I prefer that too. It just feels... off somehow. Probably doesn't help that I lived around the corner for a couple years and drove by the original bank all the time, so maybe it's just that. The design of the building is fine, too - just feels like the building fits more with City Place than the site it's at I suppose.
that section of Olive is how shall I say hectic
From moonlanders pic looks like a good hard right and one could be at the least kissing one of the windows
But again not in real life when I get out there I will get a better feel/protective
Regarding the building I like it the steel (is it steel ?) bands with the glass
