Building Stories

Treasures reveals the private life and the creative process of Costas Kondylis, a modern architect considered to have done more to influence the city’s skyline than any other. The film follows Kondylis’ career and shows the battle between artistic expression and the bottom line, and examines what it takes to design a building and gain its approval in the high-powered world of NY real estate.

    I love DC Banks on Tuesday at 8:50. Last night was a different cast, especially the blond actress(just below DC Banks). What’s going on with this series? Is it over, will it return? Really want to know. Thanks. E. V.

    I love “Treasures of New York”! Each episode makes me realize over and over how my childhood and the rest of my life have been ennobled by the people who cared to develop art in the subways and create the beautiful grand building of the American Museum of Natural History.
