Gehry at Eighty
The New Yorker

According to the online abstract of architecture critic Paul Goldberger's coverage of Frank Gehry's 80th birthday party (suscription required), it sounds like the celebrated designer of Bruce Ratner's Atlantic Yards has suspended all work on the arena and highrise megaproject:
Gehry has cut back on the size of his office somewhat, since one of his biggest projects, Atlantic Yards, in Brooklyn, is on hold. “But I have plenty of work,” he said. “I don’t feel like eighty. I guess you never think you’re the age you are, and, as long as you don’t look in the mirror, you aren’t.”
