[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Village Vice-Chairman Francine Klein said... “If implemented, and this is really important to us, [b][the plan] would destroy a historic mid-century modern headquarters building[/b][/quote] The corporate headquarters for GEICO (1959) is an outstanding example of an International Style complex composed of carefully articulated buildings set in a natural, landscaped campus. Long low wings are contrasted by taller opaque blocks sheathed in textured porcelain enamel panels and colored, crystal-textured glass panels. The 26-acre landscaped campus includes mature trees, terraced parking, flying saucer light fixtures, and a broad fountain perched at the entrance like a hovercraft. A taller office tower was added in 1964.[/quote]
