W is working with Vornado Realty Trust to create an open plaza on the east side of 33rd Street between 7th and 8th Avenues next to Madison Square Garden and Penn Station. The plaza will include a public amphitheater, flexible seating and shade, two sculptures, and a number of featured eateries. Once the plaza opens, there will be musical performances, fitness workshops, movies, games, and more. The plaza will be open from August to October- if New Yorkers support the plaza, it should become a permanent fixture in the area. Stay tuned for information on the opening day!
