Present Lincoln Center Site Plan above, Design Views below
According to the press release the project includes, "Dramatic Renovation and Expansion of The Juilliard School, Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center Theater and The Film Society of Lincoln Center, Bold New Campus Green, Signature Restaurant and Store." No doubt, Lincoln Center deserves a better public face and I'm pleased that Diller + Scofidio, with new partner Charles Renfro, were unanimously chosen to work on the northern portion of the campus. Perhaps it is the firm's varied portfolio which includes many set designs that successfully merge performance and architecture that influenced the decision, as well as the firm's appreciation for Lincoln Center's architecture, evident in their sensitive proposal.
The 65th Street portion is the first in a series of building projects that will take place over the next ten years. To see some before pictures in comparison to the new design views, with commentary, visit The Slatin Report.
