Architecture review: Frank Gehrys Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas

Reporting from Las Vegas - Frank Gehrys buildings can look unfinished or unruly - even a bit chaotic. But they often have surprisingly direct metaphorical stories to tell. Walt Disney Concert Hall is a joyously informal ship of state for a city keen to come together, if only for a few hours, in a collective experience. Gehrys own house in Santa Monica, a modest pink bungalow the architect wrapped in colliding layers of corrugated metal and chain link, is an unabashed affirmation of the workaday, un-pretty built landscape of Southern California.
