Arabic-Web-Gehry's new tower shines in lower Manhattan

  • 13 years ago
Frank Gehry's tower at 8 Spruce Street rises like a beacon above Lower Manhattan, a shining, striking 76-floor assemblage of apartments that remakes the skyline. Many hail the project as bringing architectural daring and creative optimism back to the cityscape, just a few blocks from the former World Trade Center -- and a decade after the fall of the Twin Towers. And in just a few weeks, the first residents move in.
