The New Museum<\/a> in New York has announced that its OMA<\/a>-designed expansion will open to the public on March 21. Designed in collaboration with executive architect Cooper Robertson<\/a>, the 60,000-square-foot addition sits alongside the museum\u2019s existing SANAA<\/a>-designed building on the Bowery.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The project doubles the museum\u2019s<\/a> gallery space and introduces improved circulation through three new elevators, an atrium stair, and a public entrance plaza. New public amenities include an expanded seventh-floor Sky Room, a 74-seat Forum for talks and events, and additional facilities for artists and creative production.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Upper levels will house a dedicated studio for artists-in-residence and a permanent space for NEW INC, the museum\u2019s cultural incubator. At ground level, visitors will find an enlarged lobby, a larger bookstore, and a full-service restaurant<\/a> operated by the Oberon Group.<\/p>\n
