Event Details

RAMSA’s expansion and renovation of The New York Historical, in collaboration with Sam Anderson Architects, provides new classrooms, galleries designed to protect historic documents and artifacts, and a state-of-the-art collection storage and conservation facility. The first addition to the landmarked York and Sawyer building since 1939, RAMSA’s design continues the street wall height of the neighboring brownstones as well as the proportions, scale, materials, and architectural treatment of the original, classically proportioned building.

Architect: RAMSA (Robert A.M. Stern Architects)
