I haven't blogged about architecture in a while, except for a little post-Katrina stuff here & there. John put this up the other day, without much in the way of comment. I'm practically speechless myself.
Wouldn't you just love to live in that building? Holy give me a break, Batman! If that monstrosity doesn't leak then the contractor who built it deserves an award. Big time.

Easy Gentlemen,
this is taken care of by an outstanding facade engineering firm and planned by jean nouvel..
If you take my bet.. that is never gonna leak because FRONT INC is involved in the planning..
Cheers from spain

I am just as dumbfounded by the people who actually paid to have it built.
