Arts & Culture
The Shed is an independent nonprofit cultural center in Hudson Yards on Manhattan’s Far West Side that opened on April 5, 2019, to support work across performing arts, visual arts, and pop culture. Created after New York City reserved a West 30th Street site for cultural use during West Side rezoning in the 2000s, it was designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro with Rockwell Group as a highly flexible venue. Its signature retractable shell rolls over the plaza to create The McCourt, allowing the building to shift between indoor and outdoor use. Backed by major public and private fundraising, it has become a prominent multidisciplinary arts space in a redeveloped district.
