Whoa. I spent probably a hundred+ hrs in this Tower Records as a teenager (and the Newbury Comics down the block; and a rave-pants purveyor underneath it called Ozone). Anyway, never knew it was a Gehry!

4 senior House Dems — Hakeem Jeffries, Katherine Clark, Pete Aguilar, & Ted Lieu — voted for a Republican-led resolution to “CONDEMN SOCIALISM,” a symbolic measure that passed the chamber on Wed. The vote comes as NYC mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is set to meet with Pres. Donald Trump at the WH today.
