I never liked Brasilia anyhow..desolate

[Clemenza]

Nelson Rockefeller was a fan of Niemeyer's Brasilia, which is why Albany now has the Empire State Plaza:

BTW: In building Brasilia, the government made the big mistake of building large, obstructed boulevards (a la Queens Boulevard aka the Boulevard of Death) throughout the city, making it one of the most dangerous cities for pedestrians.
