There's such a thing as "being able to walk in the door from the sidewalk", and then there's "interacting with its surroundings". The two are completely different animals.
The present incarnation of Cobo doesn't recognize that anything exists on a human [[i.e. 5'-6' high) scale. It's a colossus of a building that turns blank walls to all sides. It pays no respect to any of the surrounding buildings, the street, or the riverfront. It's just a blank box that fell to the earth from space. Where's the detailing, especially at street level???
