Muted Heights. Yes!! I can imagine one of those vinyl signs hanging on the side of the place that says something along the lines of, “Stuck in traffic? You could be home now!” (Behind the mall and in a swirl of freeway access roads…but whatever, home, you know.) So, be the first to buy. I dare you!

Looks like the market has a minor settling problem.
But really, is the floor sinking or is the building rising because it’s full of hot air spewed by marketers?

I can’t believe Mithun designed this project, they usually do much better mult-family but then perhaps they just had a crappy, unenlightened client.
If anything though is indicative of what’s wrong with Seattle it’s the big silver box next to it, in the rear in the picture. I can’t think of a single progressive city that would allow a muti-plex cinema to look like that. It seems that pretty much every thing that is done in this city is half-assed and second rate.
I think Seattle is a crappy, unenlightened client.

Remember the slogan, “What Becomes a Legend Most”? Well that does not apply here. The question is this, “What can make a run down neighborhood look twice as bad”? Thornton Place, of course! Besides the ugly building there are those two Mammoth Tusks sticking up out of the ground as if the deceased behemoth is trying to warn prospective buyers of their demise should they move into this catastrophe. But what my eye keeps going back to over and over again is that grey ventilation building (?) with the orange sign pointing the way to the Sales Center. I think it says it all like, “You, too, can live in a grey box just like this pone”. Apply around the corner. But the best feature of this shot is the red traffic lights which are saying, “Stop and think what you’re about to do”!
