Jacob Javits Center Expansion Proposal
Midtown West, New York

The pontoon will have the capability of generating energy from the tidal flow of the river. The new hall, supported by a field of splayed columns, will have a sinuous, translucent roof designed to capture and diffuse the unique river light. Two gangways, one for service and one for pedestrians, will connect the new hall to the existing Center and extend the circulation spine to form an integrated yet flexible complex.
