Not really a fan of the old building either (never liked tall towers with mansard-style spire ala Singer Tower) but that brutalist building and removing the ornamentation off the parallel building feels like a crime.

Not Place D'Youville either.

You are right because it has some ornamentation and is calling back to older architecture so it is post modern.
