The Stamford store is one of 12 Lord & Taylors designed by Andrew Geller, Loewy's in-house architect. Geller's grandson, Jake Gorst, met with the president of National Realty & Development Corp., John Orrico, in October, but failed to convince him to preserve the building. Orrico's letter to the state Historic Preservation Officer last summer said, "There is a small group that is opposing this project, and I believe that, in their effort to try to block us, they are using [the state historic preservation] office as a pawn."
Remember the L&T in Eastchester?
12 LTs were designed by andrew m geller (a schwarz favorite) who did those great beach houses. id be surprised if eastchester wasnt one of them. considering all the nice painted white brick.
