Hippies and Striated Concrete: A Match Made in Seward

Note the striated concrete.

It's for sale!

Striated concrete would have been more consistent with the essential character of the neighborhood.

That's what I'm talking about.

Your 5-second break is over, please get back to work.

Too many windows. Not consistent with the essential character of the neighborhood.

That's better.

Yes, very nice.

Great job, everyone.

Everyone is doing a great job.

Striated concrete is my reason for living.

Everyone's a winner.

Very nice, very consistent with the essential character of the neighborhood.

"You have 6 months to fill in your windows with striated concrete or you will receive a penalty on your property tax bill." 

Bricks are out, striated concrete is in, not consistent with the essential character, can we demolish this already?

True story: the windows in this building did not fit the essential character of the neighborhood, so the city ordered them filled in.  

Loving the use of vertical lines and concrete.

Well call me Ishmael, if it isn't the Moby-Dick of tree-bags!

Nice to see the window has been properly blocked in keeping with the essential character of the neighborhood.

Good thing this place is under 24-hour surveillance. I feel safe.

Everything is great. Everyone is doing great.  Everyone keep up the great work.
