The solar-powered 'Light Fall' illuminates the interior stairwell of this companies east coast headquarters. Buried deep inside the building that occupies an entire city block in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood, a delicate column of light extends 15 stories, from the roof to the ground level, illuminating a dim, windowless stairwell. The shaft’s striking glow is not generated by electricity, however, but sunlight.
