Quote of Note | Robert A.M. Stern

“Frank’s new apartment building (pictured) is very straightforward, it’s just that he has this idea of the façade. Most buildings in New York are façades. One of his four façades is totally flat [the other three feature his signature curves]. I said to him one day, ‘Frank, you know I love your south elevation.’ He looked at me very unhappily. It’s really very well-done, very restrained, very cool in the best sense of the word.
