Agreed. Either that or they should have used a beige alcubond.

I think they should have made the Tufts sign black/silver. The white blends in way to much!

I think the white kills the building. It would have looked better to just use a matching concrete for the new edition. The Tufts sign is too big and the font is dated. I think this building can be termed a disaster.
