The Urban Glass House, at 330 Spring Street, is another "starchitect" project. It was designed by Philip Johnson and partner Alan Ritchie. Last night, a soiree was put on to celebrate the completion of Johnson's last project (Johnson died in January of 2005, before completion). The photo is actually of a model of the building on display in one of the apartments for sale.The residential building is modeled after one of architecture's most iconic structures: his Glass House in New Canaan, CT. There are a myriad of articles online on Johnson; here is one I recommend which profiles Johnson and his work. Just a few of his many credits: Lincoln center, Museum of Modern Art, Trump Tower, Boston Public Library. Johnson was one of America's most influential architects. I can not begin to do justice to his life's work here. I recommend some independent reading: a good bio here, another overview here.
Oh, and prices for the apartments run from about $2, 000,000 to $10,000, 000.
