I genuinely want to know which wall street overlord is making these developers add seafoam green to their projects. Like lets build an apartment complex with a very clear color palette and aesthetic with no shade of green anywhere but DO NOT forget to slap a random strip of seafoam on an obscure back area of the building.

Forget the apartment building, love the size/space for the train traveler!

This is a fairly common revelation for DC folks who have never visited, unfortunately.

Is the non seafoam open box area in the middle a penthouse patio?

This happened like 2 years after the Holiday Inn opened. I was at a recruiting lunch for software developers in top floor meeting room (do not recall what company). After the dog and pony show, some, guy from NY asked me where is DTR!!!.

The Platform now has its own website: https://www.platformraleigh.com/.
I found this funny. The marketing copy writer clearly hasn’t visited this thread.

They’re pulling the seafoam green into the site as well, but it’s not shown in the rendering of the building…

Notice how even this rendering that should show the gas distribution infrastructure on the corner of Cabarrus and Dupont isn’t represented. I mean, I don’t blame them, but it’s there.

Gonna need a lot more gas distribution for all the smug we’re getting from Canada.
