Review
"If one teaches long enough and lives long enough, inevitably one's kids appear on the scene. Alex Gorlin was not my actual student at Yale, but I felt his presence. Now is a practicing architect...bursting out of the gate with an architectural life full of ideas." --Frank Gehry
"Alex Gorlin is that rarest of creatures-the reasonable architect...Talent of high order permeates these buildings...they stand for judgement without the protection of formal obfuscation or the armature of an ideology, and reveal the talent all the more clearly." --Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk

Synopsis
