That's how I see it.
BUT, Ozark Hall is a fine example of how to continue the architecture of a historic building without harshly contrasting with the original design.
I would rather the architecture school move to a brand new building somewhere else on campus than to do what they did. The fact that the historic library (one of the coolest spaces on campus) is now only available to architecture students is also kind of bumming. A really great thing would have been to restore Vol Walker and put the library's permanent collection in there.
Build a spaceship somewhere else.

Also I'm really happy with the level of conversation we are able to have about architecture.

If spaceships are gonna be built please replace Fine Arts building. What a boring eyesore. I can't believe the love it gets. Music building too. Just turrible buildings

The new addition is big enough to hold 50 senior studios and marlon blackwells ego

The music building is pretty ugly.
Kimpel is the worst building on campus IMO.

yeah these are the 3 or so buildings on campus I don't really like. the rest are pretty good. I would like the Blackwell Arch addition if it wasn't in the historic core of campus but I guess that's here to stay
