Glad to see new hotel product downtown, and at the same time, re-activation of existing older building stock.  I'm a tad disappointed that more isn't being done to update and upgrade the exterior, but oh well.

Yeah; could have been a little more imaginative relative to the reconstruction design, maybe bringing it up to updated/modern look and standards; but hey, beggars can't be choosy, and, they probably are trying to save money. NICE!

I like it. It's a great reuse of the structure. Also, they aren't asking for incentives so it appears the market can support the product.

The existing clean design gives them a really cool canvas for lighting.

When you're talking an evening spot with two restaurants and a rooftop bar, I think lighting is as important, if not more, than any exterior reconstruction.
