Gehry axed at Brooklyn theater project

Theater for a New Audience

Architect Frank Gehry is no longer working on Theater for a New Audience's new building planned for Fort Greene's BAM Cultural District. Gehry had been working with Hugh Hardy, who will now be the sole architect on the project. The theater's founder said Gehry's busy schedule was why he was taken off the job. The $48.5 million project is expected to break ground in 2009 after delays due to location changes. Gehry said he wasn't told of the news.
