Addded to Flickr Group "Praise and Curse of the City" on 1/31/05.
Designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. The outside is cold and hard stone, but the translucent marble panels give a golden glow to the inside. Absolutely incredible. Its biggest problem is that it's at Yale.

Isamu Noguchi's Kouros shown here is the master sculptor's modernist take on the classic Greek sculpture.
In his New York studio he worked at the beginning on portrait sculpture, stage sets for Martha Graham, furniture design and later with architects on larger environmental projects. He was able to accomplish this at the same time that he was establishing himself as a major New York sculptor.

The Marine Midland Building (also HSBC Bank Building) is a 52-story office building located at 140 Broadway in Manhattan's financial district. The building, completed in 1967, is 688 ft (209.7 m) tall and is known for the distinctive sculpture at its entrace, Isamu Noguchi's Cube.
The building was built by Marine Midland Bank, which was purchased by HSBC in 1980. Today it is known by both names, but is more often referred to by its older name to distinguish it from the other HSBC Buildings.
"The essence of sculpture is for me the perception of space, the continuum of our existence."

The upper garden is a sculpted landform in it's own right - this is the 'major ' work there. Photography is not permitted, I was chastised rather sweetly not long after this shot.
The Noguchi Museum (original warehouse, 1929; Isamu Noguchi and Shoji Sadao, mainly 1982-1983, with garden installed in 1985). Formerly Noguchi's studio, this is probably one of my favorite archi-spots in NYC: a reliably calming and absorbing visit, whatever the current exhibits are. I don't think I can really say too much of interest about the design itself, though I think the primary concrete-block addition is a great neutral foil for Noguchi's stone sculptures, and does lovely things with indoor/outdoor continuity. It's just really nice!
