I'm not very keen on the Beatley Library solar panels. The architecture of the building is debatable, and a lot of Alexandrians have opinions about it for sure, but the copper roof is its most distinctive feature. Didn't they put chemicals on it to deliberately speed up the patina process?
What was the point of spending money on a famous architect and an expensive roof material only to cover it up?

I'm very much pro-alternative energy, I just don't think this project was the best use of attention or financial resources.
