I really dislike the new Aragon windows. They lack any depth.
Also, it's a bit disingenuous to call the bank that is now Borders "restored" so much as rehabilitated; the corner entrance was originally pedimented, and there was a missing balustrade along the top. Also the windows did not go all the way to the ground. http://chuckmancollectionvolume3.blogspot.com/2006/10/blog-post_116189527596544138.html
