I predict cold feet and high heating bills. Those large balconies will make wonderful radiators, cooling down the warm yellow spaces all winter (concrete and steel are very good conductors).

They might want to look at the neighboring buildings and figure out how to do something more with creative landscaping or perhaps even creating some kind of stepped entrance to the lower levels.

That was my very first thought too! It will be easy to spot moving down I-5. It's better than most of that fake brick/capped cornice stuff going in everywhere. What's the new building on Cap Hill? Way down on the end of Bellevue? The Florence or something, that is so vegas, it hurts. I like these big balconies...you can sit there with the sound of I-5 rolling over you like the ocean.
