Apple website

[edit]

there was recently an article posted on the Apple website about the opening of the Glass House, located here: http://www.apple.com/pro/profiles/glasshouse/

There are a number of pictures that, while un-free, may be suitable for the article, as they are actually from the house and not of a model.

Intro Subjectivity

[edit]

Right in the intro, this article lists the house as a "masterpiece." This is really subjective and not really NPOV, either... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.63.107.83 (talk) 12:46, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism by Nicolai Ouroussoff

[edit]

Is there a valid reason why so much space has been given to critiques by this one particular man? Boscaswell (talk) 09:39, 20 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Problems with article

[edit]

There are several with the article that should be discussed and resolved.

1. "Universally viewed as having been derived from... the Mies house". Is a bit a strong, since only one person, Alice Friedman, is mentioned. You could say "It may have been Influenced by" or "was likely influenced by".

2. The claim that the house was intended to recreate the Nazi invasion of Poland, or Nazi purification, is pure speculation, and also of course completely contradicts the earlier idea that the building was copied afte Mies van der Rohe. This kind of unsupported speculation should be left out.

The attack against Johnson by Nicolai Ourooussof, speculating about what Johnson might have imagined when he built the house, is just that ; pure speculation, not verifiable, not supported by any facts.

The section on the alleged Nazi influence on the building is just another repetition of attacks made upon Johnson for his political views. It gives no information at all about the Glass House, and no context, and gives the impression that Johnson was still a Nazi sympatbnizer when he built the house, which is false.

In short, the article needs to stick to verifiable facts, and avoid being just another vehicle for the currently fashionable attacks on Johnson. Cordially, SiefkinDR (talk) 17:39, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
