...there is one last problem. A staff writer on The New Yorker, Malcolm is an adept practitioner of that serious-but-silky prose.

"The roof is a continuing, lingering problem," William H. Marquess, senior advisor to Canaday, says. The leaky roof seems to be a design defect, many officials say. Specifically, a stainless steel roof and gutter system expands and contracts with fluctuations in temperature, creating cracks, Frand A. Marciano, superintendent in Buildings and Grounds, says.
