The new Lewis Library #2

In response to: The Gehry that landed on Ivy Lane

Published on November 5, 2008

About this new Lewis Library: What is it with Princeton architecture? Haven’t you learned a lesson from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and its Gehry building? Ask them about the usefulness of odd-angled inside space. How about maintenance costs? I understand MIT is suing the architect. The Gehry building has been a major problem for MIT.
