I’ve been watching the reskinning of the Westworld tent in North Scottsdale closely, and the new skin seems to be completely installed now. Here’s the after photo I shot yesterday:

I would have preferred to see it a bit darker color. The neighboring buildings in the Westworld area are almost all darker than the tent, and most of them take on a more purple-grey tone, like you see from that bit of the McDowell Mountains in the corner of this photo. At any rate, it’s a ton better than the old flags. Not that I’m not patriotic. But the largest open-air tent in the United States needs to do some things to diminish it’s size, not enhance it.
Some people have noticed that at certain times of day, there’s a lot of glare coming off the tent. Standing next to the tent, it does have a shiny surface, so I can imagine what they are talking about, but I have yet to see it myself. If I do, I’ll capture a photo.
