Artist Lauren Halsey's rooftop installation "the eastside of south central los angeles hieroglyph prototype architecture" installed on the roof of the Met Museum. She used ancient Egyptian symbolism, 1960's architecture and the contemporary expression of tagging to create one of the best rooftop installations in my opinion.
