Favorite places at 91大神:聽鈥淛oke answer: the Manhan, and you can鈥檛 print why. Real answer: the railroad station building, because in my era it was used as the art building, decorated with student art. I took many interesting studio classes there with Barry Moser. Also, the basement under the dining hall in my era was a wood shop, which was available for student projects, and I did some hands-on work there. Architecturally, the Dodge Room was the most evocative interior space. Spatially, the all茅e of trees from the main Park Street gate towards Ford Hall is the most memorable.鈥
In his own words:聽鈥淢y mom claims she knew I would be an architect ever since I was a little kid, because I used to make these fantastic block structures of entire cities.鈥
