Daniel Libeskind: A World-class Architect for a New Boston Landscape The New Center's contemporary home is designed by world-renowned architect Daniel Libeskind best known for the Jewish Museum in Berlin and the acclaimed Denver Art Museum. Libeskind's architecture eloquently translates the soul and purpose of a building into a bold iconic landmark. The dramatically torqued four-story structure will be located at the center of Boston's most important new urban space, the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway. Created by the underground submersion of the Central Artery, which had divided the city ethnically and geographically, the Greenway is a 27-acre landscaped corridor that reunites the Financial District and the Boston waterfront. The New Center will play a pivotal role in successfully enlivening the Greenway and the surrounding area year round, day and night, every day of the week, thus realizing the goal of creating a common ground for all Bostonians. Widely considered the most desirable new downtown neighborhood, the area is exploding with the construction of new apartments and condominiums - home to 5,000 new residents. The New Center for Arts and Culture will contain exhibition and gallery spaces, performance, seminar, conference, and special event facilities as well as a 350-seat theater which can be configured for music, dance, theater, film lectures and discussions. The 80,000 square foot structure with its dramatic full height day-lit atrium, outdoor plazas, restaurant, shop and rooftop deck will be a civic magnet, attracting residents, commuters and tourists to the Center and the Greenway.
