More than 50 designs are on display. They include sketches, renderings, and multimedia projects created by established and emerging architects. Mr Rashid is Adjunct Associate Professor of Architecture at Columbia University and has taught at Harvard.

Extraordinary. It's like something out of "Buck Rogers in the 25th Century".

If they actually put up that monstrosity here, I'm afraid I will have to move. Gag!
