Hudson Yard's "The Shed" Challenges Artists and Wows Art Enthusiasts with its Moving Telescopic Roof

Having four double-height levels called two, four, six, and eight, the cultural center interior features column-free galleries and the isolated Griffin Theatre.

The Shed can be accessed through its main entrance located on the north side of West 30th Street where the lobby, Cedric’s (an eatery), and a bookstore is also located. The second entrance can be accessed near Hudson Yard’s plaza and The Vessel, the monumental sculpture of a winding network of stairs.
The glass curtains hanging between The Shed and The McCourt are operable and can be fully opened to merge the two spaces.

The concept for The Shed was lobbied by Diller 11 years ago when the area was still underdeveloped. Some know The Shed as Culture Shed.
