American Can Company Headquarters, Greenwich, Connecticut

Gordon Bunshaft, design partner

Roger Radford, senior designer

Michael A. McCarthy, junior designer

This corporate headquarters in a suburban setting is a reinforced concrete structure placed across a ravine so that a terraced podium connects the high ground on each side, from which rises a main office building of three stories with a large central court and a one-story executive building. Service floors and parking are below the podium, resulting in the minimum possible change to the character of the original site. Sasaki, Dawson & DeMay were the landscape architects.
