Buildings like 737 Park Avenue are as much about the transformation of physical structures as they are about the history of the neighborhoods that they inhabit. From condo conversions of luxury Upper East Side apartments to the history of buildings like Gracie Manor, the story of New York City is often one about space being repurposed.
“Making Room”, a new exhibit at the Museum of the City of New York is about that story, and what the next chapter will be. Visitors to the exhibit can expect to see models and drawings from a recent contest to design new living space in the city, as well as a full-size model of one of the designs.
The Museum of the City of New York is located just off the 6 train at 103rd Street. For more information on hours and “Making Room”, visit their website.
