Heh. Where's the NBA basketball player? Heck, Test Track's Cleveland Cavalier's finally win something, and they tear down the NBA restaurant. Where's the justice in the world.

That brick color still stands out to me, I don't like it. It should have been a couple shades darker and I am hoping they paint it.

I'm not sure they will. When you compare it to the concept art, the brick color is almost identical.

Well, they ain't going to be changing the brick color anytime soon!

In this picture the color looks better. I wonder if it is the way the cameras are taking the pictures that is washing out the colors. I think I will have to judge this one more in person.

Yeah, that picture shows color contrasts in the brick.

When the sun is beating down on it the brick looks better...Grey skies/shade/post thunderstorm make it look not all that great..

The more I look at this the more I wish it was a ride :cry:

The left wall has been "character painted" - aged, weathered, stained. The front still hasn't.

That makes sense. It is why it looks much better and shows contrast with the bricks. All the other pictures it seemed washed out and you couldn't see the contrast in the bricks.

I am assuming this thread is why I thought of it because it fits the period. 1981s Pirates of Penzance. Ronstadt does the most outrageous yet soft coloratura at the end. It was a very sarcastic production. If you want some Toothsome feel, start at 52:00. The orchestration sounds like some zany 1860's machine as you will hear.

Update from today:

This would've been a great restaurant inside of a Wonka mini-land.

 

[UNIrd]

Loving the details on this already.

 

[Nico]

I wonder if they changed the design of the left structure from a stove to just another white brick structure.

Due to the progress made in last month is it possible that this will open by end of August?

Possible, but it's still on track for around HHN time.
