with the harbour area that it lies adjacent to. This was as mentioned just the first of his many projects in the harbour area. A bonus is that they all either replace modernism or surface parking. 
demolish and rebuild with the 1960s addition torn down. The new design came from John Simpson Architects (johnsimpsonarchitects.com) and while the exteriors are not perfect, they are an enormous improvement. The interiors though are amazing.
