A balmy gift to the city (especially in this harshest of winters): The Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice, 1967. The solid feels cast around the void - a gorgeous terraced garden by #dankiley For section-junkies (pic-7) and lovers of integrated landscape & architecture… It has an amazing sense of scale, simultaneously grand and intimate. The detailing of the garden, the stone walls, the cor-ten steel structure and window walls is highly customized but feels simple and inevitable.

The Red Room, dang! The original lobby of 1 Wall Street, Irving Trust‘s 1931 HQ with its encompassing mosaic mural designed by Hildreth Meière beckons like a smoldering ember.
