AMO the ARG: dock 3 and the faena hotel in puerto madero este (day 3)

cab shot.

shiny

and new...

on the docks


the biggest attraction on "dock three" is "puente de la mujer" (woman's bridge) -- designed by santiago calatrava.
the curve in the design is meant to evoke the outstretched leg of a tango dancer...
the center, suspended section can be rotated to let ships pass...

the faena hotel...

i was asked by the doorman not to take pictures (he'd seen me outside with my big zoom lens). but the folks inside didn't mind a few shots here and there. so we cheesed it up for our waiter--he literally said, cheese-- if only to document the hilarious phillippe starck ostentatiousness all around us.

these are the most uncomfortable chairs in the hotel, i'm sure. but they make a statement.




i know-- a bathroom shot is wrong. but these were screaming to be shared, especially with my mom.
