Biggest Eyesore
1. Sonar Tide
2. Sears Block
3. New Paint Job on the Murray Baker
The Sears Block… Is this before the demolition, during the demolition, or after construction is finished??
My vote: the Human Hair place on Main street.

None of those are the biggest eyesore. It would be hard to pick just one, to be honest. But One Technology Plaza immediately comes to mind. As does that bank building at the corner of Knoxville and Pioneer Parkway — the one that looks like they took a bunch of architectural elements, put them in a bag and shook it up, then picked out eleven and implemented them. Let’s see… “art deco accents,” good. And, “widow’s walk,” excellent! Let’s see here… “pillars”! Oh yes, very nice. And, “cupola,” fantastic! This is going to look classy, I just know it!
