| 1416 9th St. Resources bldg. renovation | 
The 60 year old Resources Building at 1416 9
th
Street is now having the exterior cladding attached. It appears modern and clean,
but the exterior has now lost any architectural significance and will soon be a
featureless, bland glass tower. The original exterior had character and reflected
a time that was the beginning of office high-rises being built in downtown.

The cost to do a total replacement of the exterior must have
expanded the overall $461 million renovation costs quite a bit. It was not that
long ago in 2010 two 18-story State office towers in downtown were also renovated.
Both State offices #8 & #9 at 714 P Street had both interior and exterior
upgrades while also keeping the original exterior design.
