Oy. Well, at least we can hope that the promising Science Center going up in the Columbus Lot will deflect attention away from this thing.
Aw, it's not so bad. I mean, it's no Tree House, but the panels are kind of textually interesting. This is a city that hosts the Harvard State Penitentiary for Freshmen, so it's seen a lot worse from its universities than this...
I guess anything is better than Stetson East/West.
Worst dorms I have seen/been inside of are Warren Towers at BU. 18 floors, but looks more like it's 10. Every double room is about the size of a cubicle. I'm (almost) surprised people don't suffocate from lack of air. Truly an atrocious place to live. Luckily, I only had to spend a couple of hours in this place.
Is that like the final countdown?
Horrific.
OMFG the random lighter panels are a true abomination. I have to look at this out my office window. The panels are ghastly. City officials should demand a reclad, like they did of the Hotel Commonwealth. It's that bad.
I completely agree. I was on top of NU's garage last night looking at this thing and the random lighter panels add nothing to this whatsoever. They are clumped extremely unevenly.
Joebos, just in case you're referring to me, I want to clarify that I agree about exteriors looking good and mattering even when the inhabitants/users don't care- I was just stating a fact. Most students do not and will not care about how this heap looks, unfortunately. They certainly don't care about International Village's appearance.
