New York by Gehry

Architect Frank Gehry has designed and built many buildings in New York, but 8 Spruce Street in Lower/Mid Manhattan is one of the best. The 11th tallest building in New York is a great example of an organic flowing feeling applied to a tall structure. The outer structure of the building flows like waves on the surface of water, or silk blowing in the wind. The effect is playful, evocative, and delightful to the senses. Very inspiring example of Frank Gehry at his most innovative.   And a great example of creating a feeling of wind and motion out of materials which integrate with the structure, and are strong and long lasting.
