The Triumph of Ugly

Published by

I once visited  the iconic Blue Bar of the Algonquin Hotel in NYC. It was really cool.

And really blue.

Guess how it’s been remodeled? I don’t even want to post the photo. But I will because everybody needs to know about this atrocity.

This is the Blue Bar now:

It looks like an oversized airport vending machine. The marble counter, the chairs, everything is hideous.

All it lacks is a couple of art pieces by Feliza Bursztyn.

    Hahahaha! OMG that is the most perfect encapsulation of the modern aesthetic ever built: group some uncomfortable chairs around… A GIANT SMARTPHONE. Because that’s what people spend all their time looking at anyway. It’s what they like, right?
