The Times does a sprucing-up-the-flagging-career bit for Thom Mayne, who is on tap to complete a building for the Cooper Union (if memory serves, it is the site directly north of the Great Hall, which involves a tear down of the existing, unmemorable engineering building). A elder stateman who practices in the region once said to a friend in reponse to a query about their work ‘Hmm? Oh, yes, I remember them. I never understood why they used so many bolts.’ Well, words to that effect. I don’t have the haughty aristocractic mien to pull off the paraphrasing adequately.
