Ever since All Saints Day 1994, i.e., a couple days after
the world's largest building implosion, Gordon Matta-Clark
has been 'living' within and around the quondam power-house
of the imploded Sears and Roebuck Northeast Distribution
Center.

cenotaph 1: an empty tomb or a monument erected in honor of
a person who is buried elsewhere 2: someplace inhabited by
a spirit rather than by a body
Gordon and Otto never met until 1999, when Otto made a visit
to Friends Hospital, the first psychiatric hospital of the
United States, which is right across the Roosevelt Blvd.
from Gordon's "cenotaph". Gordon and Otto instantly became
best friends, and Otto especially likes how Gordon still
manages to make Ludwig extremely nervous.
