What White Flint needs is a version of the Fannie Mae HQ - the absurd neo-Williamsburg edifice that disrespects actual Williamsburg buildings almost as much as it looks out of place on Wisconsin Avenue NW in DC -- right? As if. <br /><br />JBG and Montgomery County seem to realize that eyecatching architecture is vital to put this otherwise depressingly average suburban strip on the map. It would be nice, though, if the various larger new buildings "talked" to each other, that is, worked together such that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The renderings don't suggest that much of that is happening.Skidrowenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305958.post-91214973269115095862012-11-26T08:41:40.182-05:002012-11-26T08:41:40.182-05:00So fresh and exciting, what's next!So fresh and exciting, what's next!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22305958.post-80991391361699940092012-11-21T14:47:57.983-05:002012-11-21T14:47:57.983-05:00I haven't noticed any faux tradititional buidl...I haven't noticed any faux tradititional buidlings going up recently?

Extremely refreshing to see a builder actually put some emphasis on architecture and taking a chance. You can love it or hate it, but by default it's better than anything that's gone up in mundane DC-proper in a long while. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
