Fresh Kills : un parc sur les débris du 11-Septembre
Little France | Carroll Gardens | Brooklyn
NEW YORK — Three years ago, after hearing about Brooklyn’s burgeoning Little France through word of mouth, Jean-Jacques Bernat relocated his bistro there. He said his new neighbors reacted to his arrival by revamping their own businesses — adding a fresh coat of paint here, replacing a crumbling light fixture there. “We stimulated the neighborhood,” said Bernat, who described his Provence en Boite as a “neighborhood institution” thanks to a steady flow of customers seeking homemade croissants and crusty baguettes, comfort foods like crepes and quiches, or just to exchange a few words in their native tongue. In this section of Brooklyn's Carroll Gardens, expatriates mingle easily with celebrities and non-French clients who live near Smith Street, the area’s central artery known locally as “Restaurant Row.”
A Very, Vertiginous Venue The unveiling of the designs of three more towers to accompany Freedom Tower Renderings of four of the five major office towers planned for Ground Zero are shown in his aerial view of Lower Manhattan from the west By Carter B. Horsley In September, 2006, Silverstein Properties unveiled the designs for the three skyscapers he is going to build at Ground Zero to the east of the Freedom Tower , and city and state officials and the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey at long last "finalized" their agreement on the redevelopment of the site.

New York Architecture Images- BLUE Condominium
‘Blue’ is First Residential Project for Renowned Global Architect Bernard Tschumi New York, NY- September 12, 2005 – A breathtakingly beautiful, 16-story, luxury condominium, with an exterior that resembles a perfectly cut azure gemstone, is about to rise on New York’s historic Lower East Side, on the former parking lot belonging to Ratner’s, the legendary 100-year old, world-famous kosher restaurant known for traditional Jewish dairy delicacies. Named Blue, the elegant 32-apartment property is the Lower East Side’s first residential full-time doorman building, and the first multifamily project undertaken by world famous architect Bernard Tschumi, who presided as Dean of Architecture at Columbia University from 1988-2003. Situated at 105 Norfolk Street a half block from the “F” train entrance on Delancey Street, Blue’s Ratner connection extends even further--its sales office, located across the street from the building at 100 Norfolk Street, occupies Ratner’s former restaurant kitchen.
A few months ago we posted a short video sampling (see below) of the urban scenery in New York City’s Meat Packing District. A lot of people have asked us about the specific locations, street art and landmarks shown in the clip, the first such video in Global Graphica’s “Visual Culture” series. We’re posting the video again with an annotated list of the shots and visuals captured in the clip in the order of appearance. Here is the list …
