Obviously, some of the interiors could use work, uh, the kitchen, I mean, really...too dark. However, I love the building. Manhattan needs some color. The only problem is I wouldn't want to give any money to Julian Schnabel (congrats on the film reception, though), especially $30 million or whatever.

Add to that the thoughtful application of passive solar on the south elevation; exactly where it should be for optimized efficiency. <BR/><BR/>Plus, the use of so many sustainable and energy efficient construction products/materials ... recycled wood; terra cotta flooring (as a material and as solar energy storage); ceramic- and marble-clad bathrooms (again, material and solar benefits); ... and as our resident New York ear, <I><B>so_chic_darling</B></I> informed in Mama's December Chupi post, the pool is believed to use recycled NY subway tiles.
