RIP.

RIP. I'm given to understand he was working on new buildings very nearly until the end.

RIP. He had a good run.

How many "He was the last remaining X" was he?

I'm devastated (in fact, I cried when I saw this on the news)... He made me like architecture. He'll be missed.

Thanks, Niemeyer!

Niemeyer is one of grand masters of arts, along Leonardo, Monet and Picasso and in architecturem along Gaudí, Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier. And he was a great freedom fighter, supporter of all progressive movements. A loyal communist until the end.
Farewell great Oscar!

Three weeks after Niemeyer's death, another famous Brazilian supercentenarian dies: Canô Velloso, 105, mother of Caetano Velloso and Maria Bethania.

R.I.P.  His architectural works were truly one of a kind.
