At the connection of the existing wall of the Boston Public Library and the addition of the Boston Public Library, the one wall said, "what are you doing here?" And the other simply replied "just trying to fit in." Here is a classic case of when two buildings separated by time and materials are united and this is the connection that occurs. Very rarely is the wall of the one the same material as the other or even the same shade. I'm not saying it should or shouldn't be, but this causes an eyesore that is instantly noticed by everyone to be simply a mistake even though it was quite literally planned. The language of the two walls might as well be completely different and each wall knows it. Therefore the wall they make up together makes no sense and the question becomes how should different walls meet?
