The Gehry building that looms over the westside highway in Chelsea reminds me of an imposing iceberg. It's said to resemble the wind in the sails of ships, though you don't see too many sailboats across the street. I like the dynamism and motion of the building, plus I think the glass facade which looks like frosted or fogged up windows is cool. I wonder what the space looks like inside, since it appears to arch backward. This kind of resembles a non-metallic, slightly less cool Walt Disney Concert Hall, over on the West coast. And when I say slightly less cool, I mean a lot less cool. Check out this photo for comparison:
