Site-Specific Installation Comes to Hudson Square

WIP Collaborative is the winner of “Care for Hudson Square,” a recovery initiative in partnership with Hudson Square Properties and Hudson Square Business Improvement District to reactivate the public realm with a site-specific installation. Located on King Street between Hudson and Greenwich streets, WIP Collaborative’s installation, “Restorative Ground,” is designed to act as a new interactive destination in Hudson Square.

“Restorative Ground will reintroduce public life back into the neighborhood fabric with a safe and inclusive design,” said Dan McPhee, executive director of the Urban Design Forum, which oversaw the competition.

At Hines, a partner in Hudson Square Properties, managing director Tommy Craig said, “It is so important for all of us determined to see New York City yet again transcend challenging circumstances to act in ways large and small that can welcome and support all New Yorkers in sustaining this singular city.”
