Manhattan’s architecture is a paradigm for the exploitation of congestion.” -Rem Koolhaas, Delirious New York, 1978 Image: De Rotterdam by photographer Ossip Van Duivenbode via The Architectural Review ## Publication Information - [Brandon Donnelly](https://brandondonnelly.com/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://brandondonnelly.com/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@brandondonnelly): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/donnelly_b): Follow on Twitter ## Optional - [Collect as NFT](https://brandondonnelly.com/de-rotterdam): Support the author by collecting this post - [View Collectors](https://brandondonnelly.com/de-rotterdam/collectors): See who has collected this post
