It is crazy isn't it? I work across the street and of course walk all around this thing every day, and it's just damn near invisible. With the other blue glass buildings and the way this is so highly reflective of the sky and has no other architectural details - it's a literal block - it just blends in.
Sometimes I look up and suddenly see it hulking there and for a second think, wow, where'd that come from? It changes the views in that area, but you have to really stop and think about it to realize.
It's way better than the Walgreens, but for 500 feet it's COMPLETELY uninspiring. I can't think of many other buildings that are so entirely forgetful.
