The 26-story, glass-clad building’s entrance lobby was designed in collaboration with artist James Turrell. The dynamic design turns the space into a three-dimensional light sculpture that continuously transforms itself over the course of the day. Together, the sublime quality of the light and the frenetic nature of 42nd Street create a diptych that is as specific to the site as the building is to its context. UPDATE: Newly added site to OHNY Weekend!
