In a recent interview, award-winning Melbourne architect Patrick Jost
offered the following clarification on Pruitt-Igoe:
“First of all” he said, “Pruitt-Igoe never won an award. That’s a
misconception. I think most of Pruitt-Igoe’s fame comes from the fact
that it was in Koyaanisqatsi, and then the music from that part of the
film has been used in other films, such as Snyder’s Watchmen.”
“The architects, Cochran Gardens, did win awards, but certainly not
for Pruitt-Igoe” Jost said.
Patrick Jost is known for innovative designs that maximize the
inherent properties of materials while taking into consideration how
people live and special needs of the community.
Just what we need -- another ex-scientologist spamming himself. Get
lost.
