The same megacollectors who could have bought the Whitney's Breuer building last year for $100m and turned it into a 65,000-sf brutalist art palazzo also could have bought Gordon Bunshaft's the Manufacturer's Trust Company on Fifth Avenue for $50m and turned THAT into a 65,000-sf mid-century art palazzo. The only thing our billionaires are succeeding at is failing us in new ways. Anyway, it's going to be a GU now.
