The owners of downtown’s new BW3 and city planners have reached agreement on a new design. Changes shown in the rendering below include new lighting fixtures and removal of yellow “highlights” behind them, along with removal of black-and-white checkers on either side. The darkened one-way windows also will get “window boxes” with artwork (restaurant branding or advertisements prohibited). An earlier counter-proposal from BW3 also is below. The new design still could be appealed to the Metropolitan Development Commission by a citizen.
