From the "did you know" files ... did you know that that brilliant Barcelonan, Antoni Gaudí (I kiss him, I really do) had designed a massive hotel for the site formerly occupied by the World Trade Center? The building itself would have been monstrous (bigger than the Chrysler Building), absolutely stunning and very rocket-like in its façade ... no mean accomplishment considering he drew up the plans in 1908. Apparently, the blueprints have been submitted to the LMDC ... what a shame though that it probably doesn't stand a snowball's of ever being constructed.
