The Bon | 1260 Boylston Street | Fenway

I actually like the façade on both sides. I think both use nice to ways to add texture.
 
To me they look like ocean waves, which I guess explains the seasick sensation.
 
It's reigniting my 20+ year PTSD.

Please pardon me. I understand why the curtain wall on the bottom two floors is left for last...but puzzle me this: why would you leave it exposed to the elements when 2 feet of blowing snow was forecast a week in advance? I can guarantee that the newly installed HVAC cost more than tarp and some staples and screws.
 
This building is disorienting. It exudes confusion and discord. It is in total disagreement with itself.

How many different scales are represented on its facade?
