Has this been done somewhere?

Any other ways to make it look better than tearing it down? Whole bunch of fake glass?

Those don't look brutalist to me. I feel like brutalism calls for more than just grey blocks of concrete.

It has to look at least a little bit evil

Not sure if you're making a clever joke, or if you don't know that brutalism is defined by using steel and concrete in large blocks. Might be a mega "woosh" on my part though haha

I wasn't making a joke. It doesn't feel right to call every unpainted concrete box brutalist.
