Build options for flex space

I develop and also act as my own GC. Was going to post this to the “contracting” forum, but most of those posts were residential GC. 
I am building two buildings one @ 7500sf and one @ 10500sf right next to each other. All my builds in the past have been PEMB. All metal panels, etc etc. Typical warehouse PEMB. 

The particular city I am building in has required me to do 3 sided brick full elevation. I am thinking of doing my regular PEMB and adding a brick veneer, but not sure. I think the brick veneer might cheapen the look. I could do a PEMB structure with metal studs all the way to the roof deck and then do a traditional brick lay. Or maybe CMU’s?

Not really sure. I am wondering if anyone else on here has any input.
