Say Goodbye To Dragon Head, Say Hello To Calvin's New Beach House By Andrea Aurichio

Say Goodbye To Dragon Head, Say Hello To Calvin's New Beach House

It was quiet on Meadow Lane except for the occasional banging of a hammer in the distance and the song of a red wing blackbird near the shores of the Atlantic. History was being made in the midst of this tranquility as a small crew of workmen began dismantling Dragon Head, making way for Calvin Klein's new, smaller, 17,000 square foot beach house.
