The round shape is very dated and unlike anything I have seen on any taco bell remodel in years? It looks like buildings that “used to be a taco bell”..? There is even a small chain “taqueria los arcos” ( Concord, Vacaville, etc, ) that has a name which plays upon the arches of repurposed very old taco bell buildings. While I can appreciate the desire to create a “vintage look” to compliment the downtown area, I wish the arch could be reconsidered to add some detail to not look like the shape of “old taco bells”. The update proposed looks like an old building that is repurposed to me? The past three years I have seen many contemporary updated facades on taco bell remodels, like the one in Cordelia junction? These have a look that matches the style of the commercial building immediately behind this site. Thank you ! Jean Price 211 Sonora Avenue Danville, CA. 94526 925-855-9255 ”USED TO BE A TACO BELL” ARCHES – NOT A GOOD LOOK / Aged & dated buildings? Vacaville OLD LOCATIONS – better shaped ? The arches have the top arched and not rounded STILL ARCHES Below BUT NOT THE FULLY “OLD SCHOOL” STYLE / parabolic faced façade over older arch windows? More detail to entry arch shape is better? segmental / arched or a modified convex is better? NEW TACO BELL REMODELS that look contemporary style similar to commercial building behind site. THIS REMODEL SIMILAR TO CORDELIA JUNCTION SITE
