Daniel Doctoroff, Chair of The Shed’s board of directors, called The Shed an “open ended structure” with tools for artists to imagine and execute nearly limitless ideas. There can be three performances happening within the building simultaneously in addition to art exhibits in the two massive galleries. The gallery and performance spaces can change shape and size on demand. Diller noted that traditionally, arts have been separated into spaces designated for specific mediums, but The Shed is built to accommodate all types of art without the architecture getting in the way. Diller Scofidio + Renfro and Rockwell Group, Collaborating Architect, looked to the past and the future of art to design a building that is different from all of the existing cultural institutions in New York City. The defining characteristic of The Shed is its adaptability. It takes about five minutes for the shell to roll out and only uses the same horsepower as one Prius engine! When performances take place inside the shell, sound and light proof curtains will cover the windows. The inside of the shell will be temperature controlled with forced air and radiant heating in the floor. It is constructed out of a steel frame covered with translucent cushions of a Teflon-based polymer.

The Shed’s outer shell moves thanks to “rail crane technology brought into 21st century,” says Elizabeth Diller of Diller Scofidio + Renfro. Diller Scofidio + Renfro was the lead architect on the project and Rockwell Group was the collaborating firm. Large doors on the side of the shell can roll up to allow trucks unloading supplies to drive directly into the building. The McCourt, whether used as an open air plaza or encased in the outer shell, can seamlessly interact with the adjoining building thanks to large glass walls that open up and connect the two spaces. Inside The McCourt covered by the outer-shell The Shed’s back of house facilities such as offices, storage space and dressing rooms are located in the lower levels of the adjoining residential tower at 15 Hudson Yards.

The Skylights is an event space with a wall of floor to ceiling windows that offer a stunning view which stretches from the Vessel to the Hudson River, and giant skylights which offer views of the looming skyscrapers that surround The Shed.

Within the Bloomberg Building there is an 8,000 square foot lobby, two column free gallery spaces that total more than 25,000 square feet, the 500-seat Kenneth C. When the outer-shell is moved out over the plaza the building’s footprint is doubled. The Shed, which was constructed thanks to $500 million of public and private funds, is made up of two defining spaces, a four level base structure, the Bloomberg Building, and The McCourt, an outdoor plaza which can be transformed into an enclosed space when covered by a 120-foot tall telescoping outer shell.
