Rust Bucket Arena?

From the renderings of the Ratner arena I know the exterior is supposed to be kind of rust-colored, but the sections that they have up already look really bad. Basically looks like its just really rusty. Does anyone know if the panels that are up already in certain sections are supposed to be the permanent exterior? I hope not since it looks like crap already but I'm not optimistic.

Going for an urban blight aesthetic. #irony

Leaked FCR footage:

The "rust" beams are the under-structure. And it's not "rust. It's a protective coat of paint.

Comes in many shades.

It's actually a protective coat of rust, it's a sacrificial layer that protects the inner steel.

yes, the same layer of rust technique is used on Aloha Stadium in Hawaii. It saves on long term costs, because it never needs to be painted.

patina non grata?

'a'ole

[this is the Hawaiian word for no]

Arena looks great. No major anything.Traffic is moving, slow but moving
