No do not adjust your dials, this is not a test. Above, a view of Julian Schnabel’s new hot-pink high-rise at 360 W. 11th St. Via thevillager.com "...Andrew Berman, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation’s director, said he suspects the worst. “I don’t know for sure — but my fear is that this will be the color,” he said. “I think virtually any other color would be more acceptable.” Berman called the building — with arched windows and clay roof tiles — Mediterranean style. “What it actually looks like is a house you would see in the hills above Hollywood — if it was two stories. On the Greenwich Village waterfront at 17 stories, it’s a nightmare,” he said. The preservationist thought this very may well be intentional — that Schnabel wants to punish, with pink, those who opposed him." It will be very interesting to see how this plays out.
