Why isn't the Hardie board taken all the way to the roof? If the finished product looks like the photo it looks like ... well it looks stupid.

I guess, because that's the original terracotta.

It's now Hardie Board--a fiber cement product--instead of vinyl.  What I haven't seen yet, (not because they aren't done, but because I haven't looked) is how they finished the arched-top windows.

IMO, the design review committee made a mistake when they approved the design. (I saw a copy of the original sketch)  But, they DID approve the design.  So, we have to live with it.

A story appeared in the newspaper this week explaining that vinyl siding on a West Federal Street building needed to be removed because it did not meet a design review standard.

This is how the exterior of the building looked in June of 2011.


Workers were applying a new exterior today.
See photo below.
It looks just about the same as it did in June of 2011.
