The High Line
Address: West side of Manhattan in New York City
Vessel and The Hudson Yards
Address: W 32nd St & 10th Ave, New York, NY 10001
Vessel is a new kind of public landmark: engaging and interactive, meant to be climbed and explored. Comprised of 154 intricately interconnecting flights of stairs—almost 2,500 individual steps— and 80 landings, Vessel will lift the public up, offering a multitude of ways to engage with and experience New York, Hudson Yards and each other. Influenced by Indian stepwells, made from hundreds of flights of stairs going down into the ground, the dramatic design of Vessel creates a stage set for New Yorkers and visitors from around the world: a geometric lattice of intersecting flights of stairs, whose form rises from a base that is 50 feet in diameter and widens at the top to 150 feet. It is constructed of a structural painted steel frame, its underside surfaces covered by a polished copper-colored steel skin.
LOVE Sculpture
Address: W 55th & 6th Ave, New York, NY 10019
This is a beautiful sculpture near to Central Park. LOVE is a pop art image by American artist Robert Indiana. It consists of the letters LO over the letters VE in bold Didone type; the O is slanted sideways so that its oblong negative space creates a line leading to the V. LOVE's original rendering in sculpture was made in 1970 and is displayed in Indiana at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. The material is COR-TEN steel. Indiana's LOVE design has since been reproduced in a variety of formats for rendering in displays around the world.
