A SHoP-designed condo in Manhattan's ever more lustrous Meatpacking District, it consists of a 10-story zinc-clad upper portion with an irregular and eye-catching window pattern, which is built on top of and within an existing six-story masonry warehouse. It was the SHoP architects who discovered the old warehouse. Then they went to Jeffrey M.

Luckily the hounds escaped any would-be assassins...
Aging is never easy, particularly during menopause. But for 30 years women could at least depend on estrogen and progestin supplements, a comforting hormonal hand to hold that would not only ease the uncomfortable symptoms of getting older but also keep skin supple and hair lustrous.
