This view of the Secretariat only focuses thought on your discussion, considering it by itself as a historic building.✅️
Usually it’s reduced to straight-man for the GA building’s punchline, a study in contrast.
Which is fine, that was the point C & N &al were making. ( Similar to unicameral Nebraska statehouse. )

I wouldn’t blame LeC for the excesses of Moses but yes, his and contemporaneous urban planning violated his own ‘human scale’ critereon; planned dystopias. We’re lucky so few visions were completed.
Is there a planned city drawn & built in the automobile era as successful as Paris or D.C., drawn & built for horse-carriages ?
