remember how for a while everyone was Bitin >>> the RSBF style on the inernet?? For example the NY times if I remember right (if U don;t believe me, check the archive y'all. If you're bored you can spend an entire day with an RSBF marathon (ROcky, I hope you're not bored anymore though!))
Now the bitin has continued into the brix n'mortar realm> In fact, there is a new COndo going up in my 'hood called "BRIX" . There;s a picture of a handsome young guy on the construction site advert that looks suspicously like kojak!!
I dont't know??
Maybe you can't blame them because no one knows what to name an APT building these days. Many try to be modern and generic like "olestra" or the "vista view pt VI" but hardly anythings good or all that Clever. On the other HAnd, If you live in a 60's or 70's type Joint it might have a Foreign Spy-tech name like "Corona" or "THe Embassy." Or an old-shcool building will usually have a classic name like "The Porter" or "The Vintage".
Actually, I don;t even know if they name buildings in NYC cuz maybe there are too many...
