Sexy Structure

Jean Nouvel's new residential tower on West 19th Street in NYC is one hell of a sexy building:
The piece in the NY Times called it a "mix of grit and glamour — embodied in a glittering facade that seems to have been wrapped around the curved front of a black brick tower like a tight-fitting sequined dress".    A tight-fitting sequined dress!  I love that description!
