Design is definitely bland, but at least it's tucked away in the back corner!

It's not finished yet.

The one to the left of it is finished though, so we can see what it'll be like when done. Bland, but fine enough.

^ an interesting construct -- a little left of centre but not too...

I feel like the natural consequence of people calling buildings like this "bland" is a bunch of other buildings that use a bizarre patchwork of materials and colors in a completely tasteless, undiscerning way. I'd rather have the former than the latter.

Clearly it's possible to make buildings that are both not bland AND not ugly, like the Louvre which is also in Century Park

Does anybody here know whether the road between that apartment building and the commercial to the south is a public roadway or an easement on private land in favour of public access?
It would be interesting to know who's supposed to take care of that road. I was driving that road a few weeks ago and I honestly thought my rental car would not get across unscathed. It has to be in the top 3 of un-drivable roads in Edmonton.

God bless you, Wormwood. You're one of the very very very few on this forum that can understand that this new project is an insti-ghetto. Something you'd see in some forgotten Eastern German burg.

Oh but those new buildings will look so much nicer when they are painted grey!

Insti-ghetto? Jesus, it’ll be fine. We can already see just next door that the final product will be nothing spectacular, but nothing to act this way about either.
