exterior architectural statement...is dramatic, if by the time of it's opening, a little bit more of "another" Gehry. Still, it does please this eye. Views from the interior to the terraces, from the terraces to the city, are interesting and quite handsome. the hallways are shaped by the demands of the building. Thus, you go form cavernous and impractical space to funnels. Signage is very poor. There is a need for a lot of help in finding the correct door to the auditorium, there are a lot of people working the halls and the doors, a kind of Disney Hall full employment act. Very nice workers, by the way.
