  • 1.  The Project of Independence

    This is a wonderful show about Indian and other Asian architecture at MOMA in NYC.  I have heard that much-loved architecture is being destroyed in India nowadays under government auspices.  This show closes on July 2.  I hope everyone who can will get to this show before it closes.  Maybe it will inspire COD to make a trip to India and, maybe while there, make the case for saving some architecture of great merit.
