The Aberdeen | 1650 Commonwealth Ave. | Brighton

Reminds me of a lot of Comfort Inns and cheap Marriott Courtyard hotels that I stayed in when I used to travel for work. One benefit for the tenants: They won't have to look at it when they're inside their units!

Too bad its deco inspiration got lost in in the final product.

Before I saw your post I was going to ask when the Comfort Inn sign was going up.
 
Miles better than what was there before. But ugly. Could have been better. I'd have gone with darker bricks.

And why so little glass?
 
my thoughts exactly

Yeah and I still stand behind those words, although I'll echo cjbski's comment and ask why so little glass? That brickwork clearly does not want or deserve to be so prominent. And LOL at the people saying this looks like a Midwest hotel... sad and true.

Still, I'm a sucker for art deco and for that I give this one a pass.
