In my opinion, they were successful in conforming to the design guidelines (oriented close to street, sufficient windows at the ground level, parking in the rear), however the design is uninspiring at best. The metal awnings look awkwardly large and clunky and the eaves appear too large and appear to be made of foam. This building is a vast improvement over the garden office buildings this developer has constructed in the neighborhood, and they should be commended for their progress. I hope their improvement continues and I think they might benefit from working with an architect with more urban experience.
