The building is from 1959.

Write me a song called "The Building is from 1959." No don't.

 

The teal panels and the pale green glazed bricks and the rounded corners of selected windows are attractive even yet. The awful plastic films on the windows are very unattractive, really really bad-looking.

 

The venetian blinds and vents and air conditioner are neither attractive nor unattractive.
