Consternation at what’s going on at Eero Saarinen’s only public commission outside the US.
Allegedly it was going to be a hotel, but the bulldozers have moved in
It will be interesting, and probably depressing, to see how this pans out. The greenest building is the one that already exists. But Mayfair.
bulldozers?
It’s not yet another ghastly facadism nonsense is it?
I suspect it might. I can hardly imagine the interior layout of the former US embassy maps on to expectations for an “ultra luxury” hotel. What on earth would a hotel do with disused padded cells, and torture chambers?
