Oliver, terrified at the dog run.

We found a few unexpected parks this weekend.

One of the many things I love about living downtown,

the random bits of green.

in the morning

2011-09-04T22:28:00.002-04:00

While everyone downtown was heading to work,

Early Friday morning was a little different for us...

lots of walking, coffee from the Mud Truck, relaxing by the water,

and chasing some flies.

last weekend

2011-09-02T21:25:00.000-04:00

There was a lot of waiting around for a whole lot of nothing.

Which is good, but I have to admit I was kind of excited to watch a hurricane

from the 28th floor of a high-rise at the tip of Manhattan.

I stumbled upon the monster (in a good way, of course) that is New York by Gehry on my way to Trader Joes in Brooklyn.

I will always love Manhattan, but there is just something about Brooklyn Heights/Cobble Hill that I miss.

Guggenheim Abu Dhabi

2011-01-07T15:50:00.026-05:00

Last night I joined fellow YCC members for a tour and discussion of the development of Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. As someone who is slightly obsessed with Frank Gehry's work it was a great opportunity to see the deconstructive method behind his projects.

“Approaching the design of the museum for Abu Dhabi made it possible to consider options for design of a building that would not be possible in the United State or in Europe. It was clear from the beginning that this had to be a new invention. The landscape, the opportunity, the requirement, to build something that people all over the world would come to and the possible resource to accomplish it opened tracks that were not likely to be considered anywhere else. The site itself, virtually on the water or close to the water on all sides, in a desert landscape with the beautiful sea and the light quality of the place suggested some of the direction.”
