This is the 100 11th Ave building located in New York City, it was constructed in 2010, this is a 23-story residential building in Manhattan, this was intended to reflect the luxurious lifestyle of Manhattans. The building’s façade sets it apart from all the other buildings and that is a difficult thing to do in a city like New York. We can see the Tetris like puzzle piece façade which is enhanced by using glass and the dramatic curve of the building, we can see that jean really likes working with glass for his projects. Jean recalls wanting to create a kind of Insect eye appearance, but to me it resembles a stone wall. It resembles stone wall because of the puzzle piece façade, instead of stones, he uses glass to create a geometric appearance. Light seems to flood the interior and I can only imagine the city looks for its interior
