...FORRESTER (NBC, Tuesday, 10 p.m. E.D.T.) is a Police Story spinoff, starring shrewd but compassionate Lloyd Bridges as a detective walking a beat in uniform, trying to clean up his old neighborhood. He appears to like everyone he meets, never steals apples from the fruit stand and is respected by the locals.

His view is that the bizarre has become the norm and such letdowns as we are now experiencing will continue to be the unusual...
...theoretical discussions with the imperious reply: "I build." For him, every structure poses its own questions of balance between man, machines and nature. Every answer is therefore fresh, poetic, charged with the identity of its architect. Mies van der Rohe had this quality; so did Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright. Now Aalto, whom Wright called "a genius" 40 years ago, stands alone...
