    Jean Nouvel's tower opens with a faceted, insect-eye facade

    Developers Craig Wood and Curtis Bashaw commission French architect Jean Nouvel to design 100 Eleventh Avenue, a 23-story tower finished in 2010. By 2008 the project is behind schedule and $50 million over budget, with poor ground conditions causing a ten-month delay. The south and west walls are a curtain wall of 1,647 windowpanes set at varying tilts of two to five degrees, inspired by an insect's compound eye. The north and east sides are black brick with irregular windows, a nod to West Chelsea's industrial masonry.
