My Jersey City-based friend Kent regularly posts updates on this structure being built above the new transportation hub near 9-11's Ground Zero. He captions each of his progressive photos: Calatrava today. So how could I not visit the site during my recent visit to Manhattan? (I had mentioned to my friend Nick that I liked Calatrava, and he said, "You're the only person in New York who does.") I still like him and his work, even though I keep thinking of how tricky it is to eat a skate wing in a French bistro as I look at his soaring talons.
Call me Ishmael.
