This photograph is all about color harmony and how the colors enhance the effect of the geometric lines directing your eye to the tiny subject. B&W, nah.
Very nicely done, Ben. It’s a toss up for me. If his clothing didn’t exactly fit the color image color palette, it would be the B&W.

By bringing the top side down to the third panels line from the ground line would "power" up the BW shot. The figure is visually lost in the BW full shot. Brightening the panels would also help to emphasize the figure in the full shot.
The color shot does work well in several manipulations of the brackets. And has diverse story lines. I can see it as a two foot vertical poster print.
In the druthers department, the color version is the one to go with.
Color as the b&w is very flat.
COLOR. Blue windows and blue clothing on man.
Color. The man is seen much better.
I tend to have a preference for b&w photography but in this case my favorite is the color photograph. The color of the man's jacket is a good complement to the color of the building and that is lost with the b&w version.
By the way, a great shot.
Big fan of black and white that I am, color wins here, Ben.
I agree with you, Ben, color for me too.
