Haute Event: Architect Frank Gehry’s 82nd Birthday Celebration

What better way to celebrate your own birthday inside the penthouse of a building that is known as one of the finest skyscrapers in a half-century? Renowned Architect Frank Gehry celebrated his 82nd birthday with many known figures in the opening of Gehry’s first skyscraper, New York by Gehry, on Saturday.

Guests like Bono and wife Ali Hewson, Candice Bergen, Mike Nichols, Ben Gazzara; art world stars Chuck Close, Claes Oldenburg, Cai Guo-Qiang, Thomas Krens, Lisa Dennison, Larry Gagosian; architects Robert A.M. Stern and David Childs, Marilyn Taylor; as well as real estate and business leaders Marshall Rose, Peter Lewis, Mary Ann Tighe and Kathy Wylde, were able to enjoy 360-degree sunset views of New York City, thanks to the space’s signature large free-form bay windows.
