Moss: Sci-Arc Not Looking to Leave Downtown

The Architects Newspaper follows up with architect and Sci-Arc director Eric Owen Moss, who wants everyone to know that despite that Downtown News story about a possible Sci-Arc move, the school likes downtown. Or is this just spin control on the part of Moss? "The lease, it turns out, isn’t up until 2019. SCI-Arc does have the opportunity to opt out if it wants next year, in 2013, or in 2016. But that possibility, said Moss, is unlikely, especially because it’s happy with its building (which he said had become a local icon) and its location." [ArchNewspaper]
