New York Times Virtual Tour
I had the opportunity to go on a virtual tour of the New York Times building, where in 2000 a new building was built between 40th and 41st streets. the news paper portion and the newsroom make up the lower part of the building. An interesting feature to the building are the ceramic rods that are located on the four sides of the building, this creates a shade like atmosphere to keep the sunlight out as well as to create uniformity from the exterior. When you look on the inside of the building there are three main entrances into the lobby, which leads you to a mossy garden with trees and beyond that is the auditorium. there is a theme of red that is used to accent the building and keep it alive. I think it is an beautiful work area, that should keep the employees happy. I would really enjoy working on a building like that.
