Comments

  • The name refers the fact that the architect of this building, Frank Gehry was inspired by the dancing team Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire. The Dancing House was built between 1992-1996.
  • In my personal opinion: very ugly. It does not fit in the zone's XIX century atmosphere, and even as a stand-alone work it has no pleasant feature at all. Again, this is just my personal opinion.
