Felt like being inside a careful idea, slowly unfolding.
More restrained than I thought it would be, in a good way.
April 2026
Met an older couple inside who'd been coming back every year for a decade. I understand why.
Spent the train ride home trying to articulate what I felt and I still can't quite name it.
The way it engages the street is so quiet that I almost walked past, but the entry pulled me in.
Got into a conversation with someone about it on the way out.
A building that grows on you. I left ambivalent and now, three weeks later, can't stop thinking about it.

Caught it at golden hour and that was the right call.
Better in person than I expected.
Quiet confidence.

Better the second time around.
Sound is different inside. Quiet in a way most buildings aren't.

What surprised me most was how generous it is to the neighborhood. Not all famous buildings can say that.
Lighting design here is doing serious work.
