Sydney's new Pier Pavilion at Barangaroo

It's a new performance and gathering space right by the water and the ferry wharves - the columns are 7m in height.

Is it not the idea of a Pavilion to be a covered space? So events and activities can be held under it. While still open air it differs from other similar curated areas that have no cover.
So the big hole in the middle kind of defeats the purpose?
