The Live! complex makes the Plymouth Meeting Mall look like a Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece. I don’t think I’ve ever seen something so soul-less.

...design looks like something that came out of the 60s or 70s. pretty unbelievable...since casinos are suppose to be flashy both inside and out.

This is shaping up to be the cheapest, dullest incarnation of those tacky renderings.

In the words of Frank Barone, "Holy crap!" It looked amazing in the renderings, I wish that glass had a gold tone like the renderings showed. Now it does actually look like it was designed in the 70's, yikes

Which is worse? This building or that new beauty on the Camden waterfront?

Camden waterfront by a mile, due to visibility.

That building is literally the worst thing I've seen constructed anywhere in my adult life. It looks like Legos.
