Info
Vessel is a public structure and landmark that is under construction as part of the Hudson Yards redevelopment project in the Manhattan borough of New York City. The elaborate honeycomb-like structure is designed to rise 16 stories and consist of 154 flights of stairs, 2,500 steps, and 80 landings. When complete, visitors would be able to climb the installation. Designed by the British architect Thomas Heatherwick, Vessel is intended to be the main feature of the 5-acre (2.0 ha) Hudson Yards Public Square once the structure is completed in 2018 at a cost of $150 million to $200 million.
