POLL: Can Snøhetta Transform Manhattan’s Most-Hated Area?
Earlier today, we learned that Vornado Realty Trust tapped Oslo-based starchitecture firm Snøhetta to create a master plan for the redesign of the Penn Station area. Even the developer referred to Manhattan’s most-hated and most-congested location as “the collision of humanity.” But Snøhetta worked their magic creating the Times Square pedestrian plaza, so we want to know if you think they have what it takes to transform Penn Station from a commuter’s nightmare to a welcoming city streetscape.
