Here it is this week:
Here is the building before construction began, from the EIR:

For historical interest, here is a rendering of the earlier "Animation Bank" museum that was once proposed for the site:

I found this image on the website of Osborn Architects, who also designed the Park(ing) Day LA temporary park on Brand a few weeks ago.
I work in animation, so it's very disappointing that the animation museum won't be built. On the other hand, it will be a relief to see this building occupied, as it's been vacant during the four-plus years I've been working downtown.
