...called, with poetry and justice, The Vertical Smile. The imagination turns jelly-kneed: War and Vertical Smiles, Remembrance of Smiles Vertical, The Sun Also Smiles Vertically. Condon thought up the title first, however, and he picks up the marbles. No one will ever slip a better description of the exterior aspect of the human female sexual apparatus into the Library of Congress Catalog...

The tower balances with Peabody Terrace, the low-rise balances with Dunster House, and the idea of an interior space gives the whole affair a kind of lumbering cosmic equilibrium. Terra cotta was the original choice for the exterior faces, and the texture which it would have provided might have prevented the tower from looking like a rouged waffle-iron...
