The American Copper Buildings are a bold new presence on Manhattan’s East River skyline.

Evoking the proportions of the nearby United Nations Secretariat, the sculptural design—two copper-clad towers that bend in the middle to meet at a skybridge—brings a new dynamism to an overlooked area of the city.
