Love that you said the rock has a lot of character. Hilarious.

You are leaving your mark and name on New York City! You are now known as the famous designer and architect of many monuments and parks! We need to see this one and the monument to the Black soldiers you did two years ago. As much as I wish the Hart family lived closer, it is exciting to have you so involved in beautifying New York City - hometown of my family for 4 generations - now 5 with the Harts! Mom Anderson

nothing like a good rock.

First the Times, now this! As your mom, I think I am almost famous. That rock is great--it DOES have character. I should know--I see thousands of rocks every day, and most of them are very ordinary. By the way, if you need more, get Parks to send you out here to prospect around. Where better for rocks than the Rocky Mountains?

This Alex Hart has become too mainstream for my tastes. His early stuff was way better. Now he's all over the papers...

So cool, Alex! That rocks! (Weaksauce, Jane.)

Awesome. Love the rocks, hope to see them in person soon!

Stonehenge,...... take a backseat!

Dave said...

I agree with Heps. It does look like Stonehenge. Just think, in a few thousand years, people will wonder if the park was built by UFOs. Jackie thinks you could work on the Nazca Lines next.

Very cool, Alex! Your excitement for the rock really came through in that interview! (As it should. Man, it's big! Is that the one you went to the quarry for?) I hope Ami is cutting out all of these articles and making an intricate scrapbook for you :)
Next time we're in NY, we're heading straight to that park to check out the final design...!

The rock quote was very Alex. So the "Newspaper of Lower Manhattan" huh? Yeah, I was more impressed to see you in the NY Times.

(I'm really just kidding, but you know that, because what an awesome thing!)

Way to go, Al! Standing Stones are where it's at, powerwise: I'm talking Stonehenge, The Wailing Wall, the headstones of the departed and, of course, the temple. I am excited to see how things go from here.
