Job Title: The Shed Finally Opens In New York City’s Hudson Yards
Details:
If the negative coverage of Hudson Yards has taught us anything, it’s that increasingly New York is becoming a tale of two cities. Much of the criticism stems from a belief that developers are building taller skyscrapers for the uber-wealthy to live like modern-day monarchs while simultaneously pushing the less affluent populations farther away from the city’s core. Hudson Yards has been viewed as the epitome of this dichotomy, a Dubai-on-the-Hudson that was drafted a decade ago and that seemed shockingly unnecessary by the time it opened last month. Yet opinions are nothing if not subject to change. And if Hudson Yards has one last chance to sway the public’s opinion, it’ll be with the Shed, an all-new $475 million cultural center that just opened to the masses.
