Building at Laumeier, 3 Years Later

Three years ago I posted about the Aronson Fine Arts and Education Center, which was under construction at Laumeier Sculpture Park. At the time I found it curious how a rendering of the project did not match the Brooks + Scarpa design I knew of; turns out their project was put on hold in 2008 (when lots of projects were put on hold) and was subsequently abandoned. This information is per a St. Louis Public Radio piece from July 2015, when the building opened. The new building is by Trivers Associates, a local firm that appears capable of turning out a fine building, if not one as exciting as its predecessor.
The other day, when in Missouri on vacation, I stopped by and snapped a few photos.
