Arquitectonica Cozies Up to DS+R in LA
West | Wednesday, September 14, 2011 | Alan G. Brake.
Diller Scofidio + Renfro’s Broad center for contemporary art features a distinctive structural honeycomb facade. It may be getting a neighbor with another notable facade, a new 19 story apartment building with staggered windows in a variety of sizes designed by Miami-based Arquitectonica. According to blogdowntown, the building would include 258 units with 52 set aside for affordable housing and 308 parking spaces in a three level below-grade garage. Developed by Related Companies, the tower would share the plaza with DS+R’s museum and back up to the planned Regional Connector light rail station.

Disappointing. This looks like a cheap knock-off of Jean Nouvel’s 100 11th Ave in New York. It belongs on Canal Street.
A great addition to Grand Avenue! Well done, Arquitectonica!
