And now, a look at what's happening elsewhere in the Curbed Nation. 1) Proposals have been unveiled for the new commercial development at Pier 57. This is the only time shipping container architecture is contextually appropriate. The ONLY TIME. You got that, LOT-EK? [Curbed] 2) No. No. Nonono. Crazy woman wants to tear down Philip Johnson's iconic 1964 New York Pavilion in Flushing Meadows. Travesty! 3) LA's Jean Nouvel project is dead... long live LA's Jean Nouvel project? [Curbed LA]...
From A Hamburger Today This weekend during brunch my friend's friend regaled us with a recent story about how while driving out of a parking lot, a stranger outside the car frantically tried to get his attention.

Go ahead and mark your calendars now for October...
First, we saw the photos of crazy woman, Bernann McKinney, who paid $50,000 to clone her dead dog, Booger.
