And I really, really doubt that it'll effect everyday architecture more or less. I mean, what, so one guy screws up his designs? It just means that THAT guy needs to REALLY put into mind the structural SAFETY of his buildings.
I mean, seriously. MIT=Judas? How about this guy is paid a whole lot of money, the students should get their money's worth. As for Art Center, his building is totally not needed. What's needed is focus on our current facilities that are in EXTREME need of repairs.
I'm getting livid just thinking about it. I would post more but... I really need to study.

Herzong & De Meuron, Foster, OMA, and Hadid seem to be rising to similar levels of fame, minus the growing frequency and legitimacy of complaints (and law suits) that Ghery has to deal with.
What do you think? Will this really hurt his image that bad, or is it going to effect the everyday architect more, since they are already being pushed out of the picture?

Anyone at MIT's architecture program currently? I wonder what the scene is like there right now. MIT = Judas??? or is that taking it too far?
