Just above the West Side Highway in Chelsea, NYC’s newest park is reaching new heights on day one — Pier 57 boasts nearly two acres of open lawn space, a food hall, and even an outdoor screening location for the Tribeca Festival
“After ten years and 500 million dollars, we can say ‘Welcome to the new pier 57,’” said Scott Rechler, the CEO of RXR Realty, which paid for the new public space called “Rooftop Park” with Google.
Attractive playspaces — and workplaces — are part of a COVID comeback for employers and the city, as top political leaders urge workers to head back to the office.“So get some new work clothes, because you might have put on a couple of COVID pounds — I’m guilty too — And get back to work. Come back here,” said New York Gov. Kathy Hochul.
