That super-controversial proposed streetcar barn at Spingarn High School? We finally have some sense of what it might look like. Take a look at some renderings from the Historic Preservation Review Board’s review of the plans:

In my column a couple of weeks ago, I admonished the city to “learn a lesson from the past as it designs its car barn: If you want your barn to stand the test of time, at least make the thing pretty.”

So: Do you think they listened?

Update: Somehow I initially missed this animation of the car barn. Gotta love that smooth electro-jazz:
