Visitors are no longer forbidden to romp the grounds of Governors Island, nestled between Manhattan's tip and the Brooklyn waterfront. The main highlight on this island located in the New York Harbor is "The Park at the Center of the World: Five Visions for Governors Island", showcasing design proposals from five architecture and landscape architecture teams, including Diller Scofidio and Renfro, WRT, Rogers Marvel Architects, and WilkinsonEyre Architects, chosen by the Governors Island Preservation and Education Corporation (GIPEC). The teams are competing to design the new park, Great Promenade and open space on Governors Island--the largest NYC waterfront redevelopment project yet. "The Park at the Center of the World" exhibit will be on display at both Governors Island and the Center for Architecture.
