A Hollywood movie life

The sculpture (with a vaulted arch) by the Valencian architect who invented New York

More than a century after his death, the forgotten Guastavino, creator of the Grand Central vaults and hundreds of unique buildings in the US, already has a monument on his land, from which he fled in 1881 taking the money from a scam.

Guastavino, standing on one of his brick arches during the construction of the Boston Library.

He lectured at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
