    1. So is Donald Trump. But he’s bad at his job too, and is walking fodder. By your logic, or at least what you seemingly are weakly trying to imply, is that none of that matters. Wise up Tommy.

    2. Your comment would be more persuasive if instead of saying (flippantly) someone allegedly has a bad reputation in a small community, you explained what you dislike about his design aesthetic. Trump is a very well known quantity at this point, Alexander, not so much, especially outside of the design community.

      I understand venting, but comments like yours just come across as trolling, and provoke the expected response.

    3. We have worked with Indy’s “elite” architects. We got overpriced and poor service with a side of condescension and arrogance. Steve’s crew is hard-working, professional, and open to creative inputs. Check out 601 S. Meridian for proof!
