Freshly painted white and fitted with new mahogany shutters, this new old house is nearly finished. And then came the stunning phone call, freezing Mr. Goetz and Mr. Malin in the back of that cab. Would it “look like a fake old house?” Mr. Malin asked. “Do I care whether a two-by-four is hundreds of years old, or 90 days old?” Mr. Goetz asked. Construction can’t be finished fast enough for Mr. Goetz and Mr. Malin.

St. Paul’s Cathedral, the Tower of London and the London Eye are all important landmarks in Britain’s capital. But after another staple of the city’s skyline, the BT Tower, was sold to an American group on Wednesday, plans are afoot to turn it into a hotel: one that rises 581 feet (177 meters) above the ground. “We will take our time to carefully develop proposals that respect the London landmark’s rich history and open the building for everyone to enjoy,” Tyler Morse, the chief executive of MCR Hotels, which bought the tower, said in a statement. The sale price was 275 million pounds ($346 million), the seller, BT Group, said in a statement. MCR owns several notable hotels, including the TWA Hotel, which occupies the Eero Saarinen-designed former TWA terminal at Kennedy Airport, and the High Line Hotel in New York City, which was formerly a dormitory for the General Theological Seminary.

London CNN —Tourists who fancy getting a top-down view of London may soon be able to book themselves a room in the city’s famous BT Tower. Situated in Fitzrovia, central London, it was officially opened by the then-prime minister, Harold Wilson, the following year. An aerial view of the BT Tower Tim Motion/Construction Photography/Avalon/Getty ImagesOriginally known as the Post Office Tower, the building was designed to relay microwave signals carrying telecommunications from London around the country. It remained London’s tallest building until 1980, when it was overtaken by the NatWest Tower in the financial district. It’s been a privilege to adapt the TWA Flight Center into new use for future generations, as it will be the BT Tower.”

That’s a question that swirls through Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie,” a live-action, you-go-girl fantasia about the world’s most famous doll. The movie opens with a prelude that parodies the “dawn of man” sequence in “2001: A Space Odyssey” (with girls, not ape-men), and then shifts to Barbie Land, a kaleidoscopic wonderland. There, Gerwig sets the scene and tone with Barbie (Margot Robbie) — who calls herself stereotypical Barbie — soon floating out of her Dreamhouse, as if she were being lifted by a giant invisible hand. Written by Gerwig and her partner, Noah Baumbach, the movie introduces Barbie on yet another perfect day in Barbie Land, in which dolls played by humans exist in what resembles a toyland gated community. There, framed by a painted mountain range, Barbie and a diverse group of other Barbies rule, living in homes with few exterior walls.
