Frank Gehry’s Latest Revealed [Curbed]
it looks like a back ground set from the post apocalyptic “Road Warrior” movie, after everything is blown up. and we have to fight auntie entity .
It’s time to let it go, real person. It’s been years already and it’s not going back. Your neighborhood probably has a lot more to worry about now that fighting the long dead Robert Moses.
Some of the things Moses did stand to this day as visionary. The West side Hwy is still beautiful in the older sections.The BQE is ugly and destroyed neighborhoods but as much as I hate to say so- Brooklyn needs it. The Moses created infrastructure for the entire city- not for one developer and his clientele. Ratner and Gehry don’t give a damn about anything but themselves. And for sheer ugliness, Gehry has reached new levels. Robert Moses had nothing on them.
We need Santiago Calatrava

Bruce and Frank got nothing on Moses
Dude who hijacked my neighborhood
someone above- you’re right, why would they pay extra for the building of this structure- you mean the ratner/politicians are all schooled in architecture to justify the extra cost- i mean they were able to build the mall without all the hub-bub. I am curious what they think of it… really. oh frank looks great!
Shame on any politician that supports this abomination, from Bloomberg to Marty Markowitz to whomever else… this is hideous… Forest City Ratner should not be allowed to develop a newstand!
The fugliest thing I’ve ever seen. God help Brooklyn. . . .
Does anyone know any more about the proposed monstrosity for the corner of Fourth Avenue and Pacific? Terrifyingly, this one is going to be only two and a half blocks from my home.
My support for this project comes down to the design. I thought it could be pulled off with the right design, but this just doesn’t cut it.
A half-baked design, combined with Ratner’s contempt for the local neighborhood and people of Brooklyn, not to mention, the use of eminent domain and secrecy, make this a no deal for me.
Is it too late to stop this thing??
Its very interesting to read the Curbed posting board on this topic…it really drives home that there are very different worlds separated by a very small strip of water!!
