Work has started to paint and repair the cornice atop the Hollister Building. It's getting a white coat of paint this week.
It'll be interesting to see how the lower-level facade turns out: if the developer chooses the faux limestone look that was experimented with at one corner or if it gets new stonework of some kind.
They said that the Bojis may open a "reincarnated" Majority resturaunt in the Hollister building, not necessarily even under the same name. I doubt we'll know for awhile.
Here's a few shots of the different parts of the building:
The cornice work LMich was talking about, didn't realize it was a faux cornice, but I guess that makes sense. The real thing would have been way too expensive.
The concrete faux-stone treatment looks ok from the street. Up close you can tell it's concrete. It looks like they're attaching concrete backerboard to the building, wrapping the edges in steel, and covering it all with concrete. It's like a fancy stucco treatment.
And finally, just a couple of random shots of the building.
