Have you guys seen the construction of lakeside on the park? I can only comment on the pictures I've seen. It is not bad for a neo-classic kind of building, but I have 1 complaint. What is the deal with its hideous parking garage? Okay, it's in the back, but it sure takes up a lot of space. I hope some plans are being made to sort of "hide" it from view! Do any of you guys have any idea about this?

My other question is, I noticed that the garage (on skyscrapers.com photos) seems to project north further than Lakeside on the Park itself. This seems like poor planning because, essentially, it will cause the garage to awkwardly jut out. Has anyone else noticed this? Is it just my incorrect perception?

For those of you who don't see what I mean, check it out at skyscrapers.com recent construction photos

Yeah, the parking garage is pretty damn hideous. But, the building itself isn't too bad - it will add some much needed color to Central Station. I'll have to go down there and pay a person visit before I make any comment on the garage's actual position and how stupid it may/may not be.
