Steve,
Stupid architects, lousy contractors and scumbag developers invented and
perfected the leaking terrace LONG before Mr. Gehry ever took a
leak in his diapers.
The chances that this scumbag developer's architect (and the architect's
know-nothing CADD jockeys) will detail and/or specify proper
drainage and flashing for the terraces, and that the ironworkers, framers,
plumbers, masons, roofers and tile setters who low-ball the job will do the
right job are, in my professional opinion, and within a reasonable degree of
architectural certainty, not good.
Sign me,
No Cockeyed Optimist.
