I did the first time. When I did see it later on, it seemed so obvious. Which it is, once you know where to be looking.

IIRC, the plan was for this fall (October?). I do not remember seeing anything after that.

Adding onto Hilton would have cost us 300-400 parking places and would have detracted from the classic achitecture of Hilton. We did the right thing -- for cheap money. How long will it be before the U of I builds its multi-million dollar practice facility -- six years maybe.

Being in the industry, I can tell you with certainty that the design was intentional, not based on what masonry was in-stock or in the yard.

I often have a difficult time understanding the Architect's design intent on buildings, but from their perspective, there is always a method to the madness!
