Elihu made a visit to Curley’s Diner last week and snapped this picture with his Pentax ME Super, Kodak 200 film.  He ordered the chicken souvlaki platter with fries, greek salad, which came with a bowl of soup (chicken noodle) and a dessert (rice pudding).  As always, excellent value and high quality food at Curley’s.

In 2001, we worked with Nina Rappaport to make a film for the “Saving Corporate Modernism” exhibit at the Yale School of Architecture called “Back to the Garden:  Corporate Modernism in Context.”  The film focuses on Lever House and Connecticut General and features interviews with Vincent Scully, Peter Blake, Carol Herselle Krinsky, David Childs, Natalie de Blois, and Roger Radford.

The film also features the “Bunshaft Suite for Solo Bass,” written and performed by Peter Rosenfeld.

You can now watch the entire film here!
