Overall I like the design. At first I wasn't a fan of the white, but it is growing on me. It will definitely be one of the nicest structures in the region. If you look at the night render on AD 605, It would be cool if they could have the exterior white panels have some sort of lighting feature to highlight the building at night. Personally I prefer the bus entrance off duke as oppose to king. I also think it is ridiculous that the regions hand is being tied on the closing of duke street. Also can't help but notice they are realigning Victoria street, but I see no mention of a separated bike lane? The plaza is alright, I do question municipally run water features, I know when i lived in Vancouver there were so many beautiful old water features and none of them worked. I can live with the parking for now, as long as there is a plan in place to sell the parking lot to a developer that will provide 65 underground/ garage parking in the future.
