A new kind of Sidewalk Shed
“Sidewalk sheds play a critical role in protecting New Yorkers during ongoing construction projects, but they can also hide the City’s breathtaking architecture and one-of-a-kind streetscapes,” said DOB Commissioner Robert LiMandri. “That’s why we are inviting the leading architects, designers, and students from around the world to develop a new kind of sidewalk shed – one that is not only safe and functional, but is also pleasing to the eye. These sheds should complement the beauty of our city’s neighborhoods, not take away from them. I look forward to serving on the jury and seeing the solutions that address this great challenge.”
