Overheard: Frank Gehry

“My father grew up in Hell’s Kitchen, 10th Avenue, on the city’s West Side. He started work at 11. He had a hard life. I’d like to share 8 Spruce Street with him. Hey, Pa! I got to build a skyscraper right by the Woolworth Building. That’s me, Dad. Up there!”

-Frank Gehry to The Guardian about his first skyscraper in New York City
