I just moved to New York six months ago and live 10 blocks from this place. It's sounds like such an ambitious project. I'll have to take a walk and look at the building to see it for myself.

Another example of a good deal of money creating (with the architects' help) an ugly home.

This is still one of my favorite projects published in you magazine. It is such a clever use of space that challanges the "common-sense" location of elements such as stairs, kitchen, and bathroom, and their relationships and use withing the building. Great piece of architecture.
