Who's Bigger?
The Real Estate Observer
By Matthew Schuerman
Gehry's proposed stoop at Atlantic Yards is being called the "biggest stoop in Brooklyn." But back when the Brooklyn Museum was completing its new facade, Director Arnold Lehman bragged about building "Brooklyn's newest and largest 'front stoop.'" It was designed by Polshek Partnership.
At 10 steps each, Schuerman tempers the debate with this caution, "Remember: Size doesn't matter. It all depends on how it gets used."
NoLandGrab: We are enjoying watching designers Frank Gehry and Laurie Olin making a big fuss over researching "Brooklyn." Somehow they missed the biggest stoop in Brooklyn down the street.
Some mavericks!
