Here's another terrible picture of the view from my dorm. If only I had a good camera...

This one is turning out to be better than I expected. It's not a beautiful building, but I expected it to be ugly. I think it's turning out innocuous and fine. With the important internal functions it will serve, I'd call it a win.

Here's a virtual tour rendering of the building, cool to see what some of the completed exterior will look like and some of the inside spaces.

The vertical glass on the 'nose' doesn't do much for me, but now that you can see areas that more or less are closed in from top to bottom, it looks alittle better then I thought it would.

I like it. I think I am actually starting to see Penn's master vision for its medical center. I believe all of this will age well, it looks like "minimal futurism."

^ Driving back to the burbs via Walnut Street a few days ago, it struck me how well this behemoth blends into its surroundings.

All in all, I think this one turned out better than I thought it would. About half way through construction, I was pretty sure it was going to be awful looking. However, the glass on the east and west sides breaks up all the stripes and makes it more attractive imo.
