Featuring Open House with Delancey Underground Co-Founders James Ramsey and Dan Barasch on Sunday, April 1, 12-6 pm
Is New York City's next park underground? Two leaders from the Lower East Side, Designer James Ramsey and social entrepreneur Dan Barasch, have developed a plan to build the "LowLine," a cutting edge new green space in an abandoned trolley terminal beneath Delancey Street, on the Lower East Side. This special month-long exhibition will provide an opportunity to learn more about the solar technology enabling a subterranean park, preview initial designs, and envision the potential uses of a community-based public space in the 21st century.
To open the exhibit, Delancey Underground Co-Founders James Ramsey and Dan Barasch will be presentat the Opening on Sunday, April 1, to directly engage the community on this ambitious project.
The exhibit will include a life-size rendering of how the park could look and feel, as well as a 4 minute video of the proposed park. Images of the current location as well as architectural renderings of its potential future will be available for viewing and for purchase.
