Gehry’s “Gap” Vanishes

Remember this?
I guess that Barry Diller wears the pants at his new Gehry-designed IAC building in New York, because the billboard advertising “the boyfriend trouser” is no longer blocking the view of the structure from the south.
But when I drove by last Friday night, around 9 p.m., I was startled to see the interior of this bulky building completely lit, top to bottom. What’s more, the ground floor glowed a lurid red.
A striking sight, to be sure. But this is no Empire State Building and it seemed a waste of energy for the sake of vanity (unless the entire staff was working really late, or a party was in progress). Maybe the “green” police need to tone down the mogul’s red glare.
