	* "I wasn't the winner. I'm not surprised, because mine required commitment for a very long time. It was suggesting that this area of the West Side was the last vacant area allowing fresh air to come off the river, and therefore they should do very little with it; the last thing they should do was cover the railway and build over it. But all the other schemes did just that; they built a stadium, a thirty-thousand-seater centre for something - always something unspecified for architects. I would have been delighted to win, but knowing the jury and knowing New York, the short-term advantage took preference over anything else. The jury, Frank Gehry, Philip Johnson, Phyllis Lambert and various other people, awarded the prize to another man [Peter Eisenman] who did the normal, predictable thing."		* "I wasn't the winner.
