Some of us are overfond of complaining about the big money that drives new architecture today. The theoretical designs that once served as a critical commentary on the professional mainstream have all but dried up. Architects who once flaunted their radical credentials now work almost exclusively for giant corporations and nouveau-riche clients. But take heart. There is evidence that serious architecture is still being made, some of it even in New York. NYT | Slideshow

only saw the slideshow, but not sure how this collection of projects is supposed to console us on the point he opens with...
i came here to write the same thing, subtect.
i was hoping for meaningful and not-overly-expensive work from people who weren't obvious. guess we're still in the museum era?
I saw only the slide show as well, the other NYT link is broken. I'd love to read what he has to say, I took the same feeling away from the slide show that subtect did!
