« In Memoriam: Googie Architect Eldon Davis | Main | Griffin Society 12th Annual Meeting »

Ha! This is hilarious. I would cringe every time I ran by his ICA Building on the West Side Highway in Manhattan. HATE it.

Count me in the crumpled metal hater crowd. They look like buildings that drank too much and vomited all over themselves while struggling to stand up straight.

I call him the best stage set designer in the world. Not an architect, though.

The ICA building is the worst--it looks like a middling office-park complex that's been enveloped in one of those advertising car wraps.
