Huge statues overwhelm lobby.

Not to mention the hard foam material they are made of just seems cheap compared to the beauty and detail of the structure. Some times I tell people I moved out of the Langham because of those statues, even though it isn't true. Side note. I find it funny the company that manages the Langham refers to it as an Art Deco building on their website.

I have to agree. Those faux gold winged statues are wildly out of scale for the room. The fireplace sets the tone of the scale.
