[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Mazza Galerie replacement will look phenomenal. It is stick built over concrete—that’s how they build these days. But the brick is not thin veneer but full size brick for the exterior walls. It will look like the architect’s other projects in Denmark. The people
commenting here will be most pleased with the result. [/quote]

Please post other work by Danish architect when you have a chance. I like what they did with Fannie Mae (preservation of Facade. If they had offset it with the triangle building set further apart would have been perfect and they could have dialogued with each other-old meets new. Unfortunately density bros want ...density, and now the two interesting/beautiful buildings are sat next to a squat shoe box (Upton Place) that is not as nice/pleasing as the building it replaced. I also don't see the appeal of any of the triangle or shoebox building apartments that are on the shadowed/no views side. The Density Bros need to answer for this.[/quote]
