wiffleball 4,631 Posted May 17, 2019 This won't get enough attention, IM pei changed skyline's cities around the world and that's just the beginning. When I get a chance, I'll try to find a feeling August ball. But even down in Houston, arguably the most recognizable, the one that shows up in all the car commercials, was designed by i m pei. Actually kind of cool that I was there for the groundbreaking. Must be gratifying feeling to know that rather than having a single gravestone as your legacy, your work will be seen, used, and marveled at for generations after you've passed. If anybody finds a good listing or is impressed by a particular photo, feel free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
