Again, a mismatch of materials. Brown brick, grey metal panels, red glass panels, dark black spandrel?

Not a great photo but a different angle.

Any idea what will be in the new building?

Wasn't it supposed to be some Japenese zen garden?

Quote from the DevApp:

Treatment of the Heritage Pavilion The existing concrete structure of the pavilion is built on the common foundation of the main Hotel which is to be demolished. This demolition would very likely result in structural damage to the pavilion requiring steel reinforcement which would very likely alter the appearance, at least on the inside, quite significantly. Luckily, we are in possession of the original drawings of the building, and because of its simplicity we can recreate it to its original appearance. The main structure is one of poured concrete columns and beams, and the cladding elements need renovation which in many cases means replacement. The glass walls for instance are dated and of poor quality, to reach the performance results required by today’s standards replacement is the only option, likewise, for the skylight in the peak of the roof. The roofing material itself has been changed over the years and is no longer reflective of the original construction. By using the original drawings, we can reconstruct the pavilion to the original look and recreate all the original detailing, some of which has been lost over time. To salvage the original building means in fact salvaging the 8 concrete columns at the perimeter of the building, as the rest of the building mostly requires replacement to renovate it to the quality it has to be to be part of this complex.

Some decent street level stuff. Feels like a higher density Wateridge.
