Talk:Hearst Tower (New York City)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Picture

Is there a picture of the original 6-story facade? I think that would go well with this article. Fieari 03:41, August 26, 2005 (UTC)

A quick google image search for hearst tower base brought up an old black and white picture of the original building. I've never dealt with images on wikipedia and have no idea if it could be included in the article; if anybody wants to make that deduction while I figure it out for myself, go right ahead (a note on your conclusions would be appreicated) -seliopou 14:42, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Diagrid

Anyone want to make a diagrid article and reseach a little into it? Sounds like something that should be included in wikipedia.

[edit] POV tag

I feel like a dolt slapping a bunch of tags onto this page, but it has problems. It really doesn't seem compatible with what I've read or heard of the Hearst tower. Though it same architect as the Gherkin, I've never thought the resemblance was particularly strong – certainly, they look more different than, say, the Seagram Building and IBM Plaza. Second, the criticism seems one sided and desperately lacks citations – for example, Nicolai Ouroussoff's commentary for the Times was quite positive ([1] if you have access). Incidentally, this review is scathing of the Time Warner Center, which has quite a positive article. –Joke 20:23, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

Agree This is hardly a dispute at all. All un-cited and POV comments should be removed. -Msc44 05:18, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
