Gehry Landscape
The usually gleaming stainless steel panels of the Walt Disney Concert Hall take on hues of their own on a cloudy L.A. morning.
Architect Frank Gehry completed his design for the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, CA in 1991, but due to fund raising issues ground breaking didn't take place until 1999 and construction was not finished until 2003, by which time several of his later designs had come to reality, including the Guggenheim Bilbao Museum, stealing some of the thunder of this pioneering structure. In a cost-saving move, the originally designed stone exterior was replaced with stainless steel, a material that would come to mark many of Gehry's buildings.
