A project called “ART Tower” is a great opportunity to make a big design statement. I’m hopeful something inspired happens there!
I do too. Could be something really beautiful.
Having zoomed in and looked at the rendering of the ART Tower, I find much to like about it. The undulating ground floor with chamfered entrances on the two corners will be a big plus for pedestrians, especially considering the present horrid experience of walking by ART’s bunker and parking lot on SW Alder. The undulating illuminated penthouse could be a very attractive addition to the skyline in an area with such short neighboring buildings.
