Seriously, its a shame that, for some reason, Jahn never exploded into the mainstream in the way that other Starchitects did. I mean he really was one of the few that did PoMo right and continues to turn out excellent modernist buildings these days. I don't know why his popularity never really took off, but its a shame.

He'll never be a Gehry (one could argue that's a good thing), but he's still respected and gets commissions around the world. Why else would he have been asked to design two towers for City Center alongside KPF, Vinoly, Libeskind, Foster, Pelli?
