A new idea for Brownstoner
Reading about the Methodist Hospital annex at Novo conjured up flashes of the plastic pachysandra diorama in the revolving hospital entrance on 7th Avenue. Seems many of the larger businesses (and the hospital is a business) don't know or care about design. The Brooklyn Chamber sponsors an annual 'architecture' awards that lauds commerce, not design. What about a Brownstoner/Design*Sponge effort to commend design?
Know you guys are busy and probably overextended, but wouldn't it be a great?
love ya,
Ms. Wink

They should do a Brownstoner Idol, with buildings. We could all vote.

I actually suggested this once, myself. Over a year ago. You'd think Brownstoner would jump on it. Awards are always free PR, for whatever organization or company gives them out.
