Atlantic Yards Report Norman Oder catches Forest City in a conundrum, thanks (inadvertently, and no doubt, unintentionally) to Professor Stuckey. A Real Deal article, headlined Forest City goes one for two with Gehry: As Atlantic Yards stalls, Beekman Tower skyscraper sprouts, quotes a former Forest City Ratner official as saying, not unreasonably, that residences in buildings designed by starchitect...

Back in May, this three-story unit was available for rent right on the Speedway in Venice. Designed by Frank Gehry and his artist friend Chuck Arnoldi, a commenter informed us it was the former loft of Robert Downey Jr. So imagine if those walls could talk. The unit seems to be back on the rental market , after disappearing the last few months. But this time it's back with a price chop. Instead of...

In the beginning I had a vague idea of what was necessary to get better and succeed in the design industry, but it took me quite a few years to discover some basic concepts that really made me become a better...
