I REALLY LIKE FRANK GEHRY BUT...

Only the Blog Knows Brooklyn

OTBKB worships "at the altar of Frank Gehry" and then defends her borough.

I really, really respect the guy. Clearly this is a project close to his heart. What architect doesn't dream about creating a city from scratch. The trouble is: Brooklyn doesn't need a city within a city, a skylline within a skyline. It already is a city, a city with landmark architecture and one-of-a-kind beauty. It's just not the right blank canvas for Frank Gehry.
