235 BoweryAmong History and Culture

“New Museum of Contemporary Art is a seven-story, eight-level structure located on the Bowery at a pivotal geographic and cultural intersection in New York’s urban fabric. Acomposition of stacked boxes rising 174 feet above the street and shifted off axis in different directions from the building core, conveys the dynamism of the institution, creates skylights that bringnatural light into interiors, and is punctuated by windows that offer city vistas.”

Stacked Boxes
“that is simultaneously delicate and powerful, precise and fluid, ingenious but not overly orovertly clever.” "a sculptural stack of rectilinear boxes dynamically shifted off-axis around a central steel core."

Anti-Monumental
Expanded Aluminum screen makes up the outer skin allowing viewsfrom within and creating a dematerialized effect and play of light.

“The thinness was critical”

“That perimeter bracing proved themost complicated part of the project, according to Kevin Poulin, senior project manager for Simpson Gumpertz & Heger (SGH), the building’s structural engineer of record. The staggered boxes posedsignificant challenges for controlling lateral seismic and wind loads.”
