Go easy on me, I'm not into construction. Is this scaffolding or is it decorative?
No, that'd require cutting doors into the walls of each and every room, which they aren't doing. It's basically just a decorative addition to alter the facade.AggieBaseball06 said:
I assumed they were putting balconies on the rooms but I'm no engineer or architect.

So far this is definitely a case of the actual looking nowhere near as nice as the plans.

It looks a lot better than it did.
Agree that the old Hilton was not very pretty but it did just blend into the background.Broncos said:

Has anyone been to the new rooftop bar there yet?
I see it everyday going to work and think the same thing.1939 said:
Came here to look for this thread. Was in town for the first time this year and came to the stoplight and thought to myself that they must be renovating the exterior with all that scaffolding, then with a closer look I realize it was permanent. Looks horrendous.
people coming into town won't care. they'll pay the extra $50-75 per night that it took and not look back.BQ_90 said:I see it everyday going to work and think the same thing.1939 said:

Whoever was the architect gets a big fail
I think some type of aluminum shade structures (think what's around the Zachry Engineering Building) are what they should've gone with. All that galvanized steel looks like it should be in a chemical plant down at the coast or something.BQ_90 said:I see it everyday going to work and think the same thing.1939 said:
