The few blogs I’ve read seem to share the same flaw/habit: they are so personal and presumptive as to be confusing.
Your blog gets at many issues, perhaps too many, and that is part of why I didn’t respond earlier. Cira Centre, as Pelli stated, is tied to the history of the city, to the people, to the culture, and to the climate.Īpologies for the long delay in response to your original email, following our chance meeting. Similar to Serra's Tilted Arc, if Cira Centre was ever removed, it would lose all meaning. It is not an International design that can be removed from Philadelphia and dropped in another city and remain effective. Cira Centre does not scream, "I, I, I" but rather, "We, We, We." It is a building for a city and not an architect's nod to architecture. Cira Centre, unlike the horrific Liberty Towers and the other downtown skyscrapers, sits quietly on the west bank of the Schuylkill River, just outside William Penn's and Thomas Holme's original plan for the city. The fact that Cira Centre is so far removed from the downtown area and stands only 435 feet tall (over 100 feet shorter than City Hall) makes viewing the building difficult unless you walk toward it. That it made the building more interesting or more prominent. That my obsession with filming it had somehow left a mark. I was told that part of that had to do with my years of attempting to cinematize the structure. For the newer, more modern, both said Pelli's Cira Centre. My wife chose Horace Trumbauer's Philadelphia Museum of Art as her old structure while my friend chose William Strickland's Merchant's Exchange for his. Be prepared to laugh, sweat, and feel amazing.The other night I asked my wife and my closest friend what their two favorite buildings are in the city.
