Seagram Building

The first time I went inside I was told at the concierge that I could not take photos of the art work. I was allowed to photo outside art on the patio.
I returned today to see what I could find out about this building. I learned it is owned by the famed Seagram Company. The employee today informed me that I AM allowed to photo the art work on display. He said no photos allowed of the building itself! It is the architecture they are concerned about protecting. Yet at the same time I’m told architecture students come there a lot to photograph. I guess they don’t want the ideas stolen! Frankly I find the building in itself boring. I’m interested in the artwork on display.
I would like to thank the Seagram Company for the enjoyment I receive from viewing the art!

Beautiful lunching spot in midtown! In good weather, there are plenty of steps and walls to sit on in front of the Seagram Building, and the pool/​fountain provides a nice aesthetic counterpoint to the tall, stark architecture.

Walk by this Building one time… its a nice building 38 stores… dark tinted windows… its ok…
