Dix park area is getting some height on the skyline.
Looking forward to seeing how much of this ends up visible from Western Blvd as youâre driving in from the West. Currently you can see the crane, but not much else - but I wonder if the apartment building section youâve pictured here will end up peeking up above the trees! I definitely know all the 20-story towers that are going up around this will be visible from that stretch!
How many stories are the buildings in this picture supposed to be eventually?
Appreciate you taking the picture from the exact viewpoint of the rendering
I actually count 7 mostly. I had forgotten this was supposed to look this nice! Definitely more interesting than many apartments lately (from this angle at least).
Those long walls toward the back do seem to start looking like the white Platform sides with similar random splashes of color. Which I find inoffensive, but I know some of this board thinks they look a bit Soviet.
Not sure why your post got flagged LOL. That pretty much sums it up.
Yeah I have no idea⌠Maybe someone is offended by âfoulâ language? Not like itâs really been an issue before⌠weâre all adults here lmao
Please donât remind me about this.
Well remember, ( as I had toâŚ) this is the one where the parking deck sticks up a couple stories above the dwellingsâŚjust for fun.
Yeah but itâs got that WWI dazzle camouflage paint job so you wonât notice it
Tbf that rendering set was somewhere between âconcept drawingâ and âvision boardâ when it came out with the initial announcement for the area.
Personally I always thought it looked too âI, Robotâ.
Brutalism, circa 2023
Itâs insane the poor color choices of some developers itâs a shame. But I blame some things for it. Coughs⌠Appearance Commision. CoughsâŚ
Again why did the developer get lame, and scale back design?
