^ yeah i would not have thought stern could be topped for neo-pre-war style, but i think you are right.

btw — the hudson valley company that made the terra cotta is also making it for one vanderbilt’s white facade and it looks good so far too.

also, not sure who is making it, but more green terra cotta to come supposedly with that tower downtown next to one manhattan square aka 227 cherry. edit: 247 cherry will be green glass not terra cotta — too tall for much of that i guess — oh well.

anyway, i love it — so lush — crafted facades instead of hanging glass curtains.

bring on more terra cotta and more neo-deco.
