Your Rating:
     Reminiscent of a Parisian mid-rise, 10 West Elm fits in well in a neighborhood of people who would appreciate such a heritage. The building brightens up a potentially dark corner with its orange façade, and hints of a regal lineage with its green roof, which is similar to those of the noble roofs of Europe where the copper has turned green with age.
