The lower 2/3 of it is very plain, but then all of a sudden the upper 1/3 becomes very busy. The busyness and plainness need to be balanced out more.

The only major change on the upper floors are the setback which help to scale what would otherwise be a pretty boring box.

Basically what I mean is to liven up the bottom half a bit. Right now it looks like an image that is plain and clear at the bottom but becomes pixelated as you go up. That business at the top needs to be balanced out for the building's entire height. Most of the other buildings portrayed in this thread are well balanced.

The Bellemont is wonderful. A building like this would nicely fit into the Back Bay.
