NYCity Opera – What Might Have Been

Plans for a new home for New York City Opera are done, even though the company probably won’t get a chance to use them. Too bad, writes James Russell. “City Opera says it’s still discussing a new home, but the task looks ever more formidable. The de Portzamparc effort makes it all too clear just what New York City is missing, and why the self-proclaimed world capital of culture has so much trouble nurturing it.”
