Zaha Hadid is her full name and she was and amazing visionary and architect. She passed not to long ago.
This image is of her only residential building on the west side on New York which you can see from walking on the High Line Park. The High Line is an amazing recent addition to the New York scene and was built on an old elevated train line that ran between the buildings of lower Manhattan then turned into an urban oasis and park. I found the interplay between the lines ,reflections and curves of the structure interesting . All Comments welcome and thank for viewing regards,
Dean

That's some amazing lines in this building, must have taken some planning and special processes to build it. Nice image.

Wonderful image and thanks for the architect info. I made that exact image!

Don't want to hijack your thread, but it's interesting for both of us.

Jeffrey.. I have always admired your work and now I know why :) . That is really funny its almost identical. But I’m not completely surprised when a seasoned eye looks at that scene they immediately see where the image lives and makes that crop. Next time your in NY or on your way let me know I live 15 miles from the city and have lots of city spots as welll as Harriman and would be happy to take you around. Regards,
Dean
