The Shed 15 Hudson Yards - concept design street view

The Shed will be a cultural building sited directly at the base of the residential building 15 Hudson Yards; both buildings were designed by the same architects, as they wanted to have control over the nature and shape of the building that would be adjacent to The Shed.

The Shed's most notable feature is its capacity of expanding and shrinking itself when needed, making it a flexible venue by the use of a rolling sleeve mechanism. It's also designed to have an adaptable interior, making it capable of changing its configuration depending on the character of the events taking place inside it. When the building shrinks, the 17000 sq ft plaza becomes available for outdoor activities and programs.
