Arquitectum 2nd Urban Architecture Competition: New York 2007

This architectural competition is being promoted by Arquitectum to evaluate proposals for the construction of a new monument to the urban, cosmopolitan and "universal" character of New York City.

To that end, this project (a 100 metre tall tower), will house a museum which will display the belongings, memories and photos of the new generation of immigrants which - from the 1960s onwards - headed for a city they saw as the paradigm of the American Dream.

This museum tower - to be located at the tip of the island on a pier over Battery Park - will not only become an architectural landmark, but also serve as a space dedicated to the celebration of the new urban dynamic of global multiculturalism and interracial relations in the 21st century.

The museum will occupy an area of approximately 1,000 square metres and include the following spaces: entrance hall, temporary exhibition room, permanent exhibition room, storerooms, bathrooms, maintenance department, security, offices and cafeteria.
