Description
The New York Academy of Sciences’ sweeping reception
area is perched cloud-high-in-the-sky. A striking sculptural
metal art wall, depicting downtown’s street grid and the
Academy’s history in New York since its inception in 1817,
bisects the blond quarter cut aguire wood–clad space.
The undulating openwork sculpture separates the space
into a traditional reception area with seating and a
pre-function space featuring a permanent credenza for
check-in and catering, a manned coatroom, monitors
listing event information and three large flat panel screens
utilized for branding opportunities. Beyond the soaring
floor-to-ceiling windows is a giant’s eye-view of the city; on
a crystal clear day guests see from river to river with
notable landmarks like the Brooklyn Bridge, Empire State
Building, and the George Washington Bridge laid out 40
floors below the 2,853 sq. foot space.
