Frank Gehry Doesn't Like Donald Trump's Hair

110210trump.jpg The Observer accompanied architect Frank Gehry on a visit to Beekman Tower, the luxury residential skyscraper at 8 Beekman Street. Apparently Gehry told developer Bruce Ratner to make the building shorter than the Trump World Tower, so they wouldn't have to deal with Donald Trump (Beekman Tower ended up being taller). And Gehry added that after he turned down a Trump project, they were once at the same function, "I tried to shake his hand and he said, 'I don't talk to people like you.' So he doesn't talk to me... I don't care... I don't like his hairdo anyway." Trump told the Observer, "Maybe I just don't find him interesting. It doesn't mean I don't like him."

  • Hi,

    Nice article about Frank Gehry..................................

    No surprise. Big egos naturally clash. But that "I don't like his hairdo anyway" comment comes off as incredibly childish. Or more probably senile, judging from the looks of his buildings.

    Natural case of tower envy.
