Renderings for the makeover of Pier 26 in Tribeca (located between North Moore Street and Hubert Street) has been released for the first time. The Hudson RIver Park Trust, which oversees the management of the pier, recently presented to plans to the public at a community board meeting as reported by Tribeca Citizen. The design is compelling and depicts a futuristic park that will be full of activities for residents to enjoy — including elevated walkways, lounging areas, distinct green areas, recreational areas for sports and a playground for children. The pier is being designed by landscape firm Olin and architect Rafael Viñoly. With the designs receiving praise at the community board meeting, construction is likely to get underway about a year from now.
