SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE … I DON’T KNOW … LIKE I’VE BEEN LOCKED UP TIGHT, FOR A CENTURY OF LONELY NIGHTS, WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO RELEASE ME.
IT’S ALMOST LIKE MY BODY’S SAYING “LET’S GO” BUT MY HEART’S SAYING “NO.”

Critics raved when Frank Gehry’s soaring residential tower at 8 Spruce Street opened in February, but they may want to rethink their praise for the glimmering steel facade. The ‘New York by Gehry’ building is so incredibly reflective that it has set fire on more than one occasion to surrounding buildings. The New York Fire Department reported that the concentrated reflections from the shiny stainless steel are so hot that they caused fires on the roofs of several nearby buildings over the course of the last few weeks, including the Verizon Tower (shown below), Pace University and New York Downtown Hospital. Fortunately, no one was injured during any of the incidents.
