[All Photos: Will Femia]
The reports from yesterday's CurbedWire regarding the slow reveal of the new-look 2 Columbus Circle led us to dispatch Curbed photographer Will Femia to the scene, and it was worth it. Architect Edward Durrell Stone's so-called "lollipop building," derided for much of its existence before a furious last-ditch preservation effort failed to save the oddity's exterior, is undergoing a radical transformation to the Museum of Arts & Design, and now part of the new façade is visible. The building is scheduled to open in the fall, whether Tom Wolfe likes it or not.
