Proposal Would Relocate Arts Center to Transit Hub
By Megan • Apr 10th, 2008 • Category: News for Creatives (archives)Robin Pogrebin reports for The New York Times:
“New York State’s top economic-development official has proposed moving the performing arts center planned for the former World Trade Center site and building it atop a vast subway station planned for downtown at Fulton Street and Broadway.
The official, Avi Schick, chief executive of the Empire State Development Corporation, said his proposal was at this point only “an idea or a concept.”
But it has prompted concerns from the Joyce Theater, which in principle is to occupy the performing arts center; from downtown business groups; and from the architecture firm that designed the Fulton Street Transit Center.”
