Definitely. To me, the following each makes the design on the right less readable: 1. The box around the picture draws your eyes more, as does the circle added at the bottom, but neither of those elements provide important information, they're simply distractions. 2. The fonts used are harder to read. 3. Removing the lines in right column slows your ability to parse the information. 4. The address, phone number, and website, some of the most important information, no longer stands out at all. Some of the alignment changes on the right are better, but on the whole, the original is much more likely to get peoples' attention.
