So many well designed modern and brutalist buildings are destroyed for tacky contemporary facades. What a waste.

One of the few examples of renovation I like
Mostly residential buildings look better than glass and steel offices, imo.

I might be in the minority, but I think that recladded building looks so amazing. Better than the old brick one.

I don't like the one in front of it, old or new.
