If built as designed, would this be the first green wall on the exterior of a building in the city?

Just wanted to give a shoutout to Summers and other Philly contributors. We have the best threads because you guys put effort into each one. Anyone ever pop into other cities' threads and come away disappointed? I feel like whenever I check out proposals or U/C buildings from other cities, those threads don't always include a rendering on the first page! (NYC pages are the worst, they never include renderings and you have to scroll through pages and pages to eventually find them). I thought the first post of each thread was supposed to contain renderings and other key info and yet it seems like the Philly threads are the only ones that follow this. So kudos to you guys!
As for this specific proposal...love the height and not really out of place either. Way better than what's there now. But the design is that bland, overplayed formula: traditional base "to blend in" with a disjointed, contemporary tower on top. But overall, no complaints. |
Thanks McBane! Appreciate that!
|
Happy to see some height so far west. Overall I like the project. I don't think the white paneling will age well, but the rest of the tower looks very nice.
|
I wonder how much this cost to build. Anyone know?

July CDR Submission is up for this one

And also agree that the design feels bland, but enjoy the density happening, and feels like the area can handle it well. I'm really interested in the adjacent park and the quality of it. Increasing investment in that public space would be good for new and existing residents. |

Speaking of those condo's (The West Philly H.S.) building, Are they finished with that? It seems to have been the longest build out ever! |
