Intersections: The Grand Concourse at 100 is divided in three segments succeeding each other chronologically: Past, Present and Future.
The first segment, Past, will feature a number of historical documents borrowed from collections of the Bronx Historical Society, the New York Public Library and the Museum of the City of New York and related to the creation of the Grand Concourse.
The second segment, Present, will focus on the present conditions in the area through a series of projects specially commissioned for the occasion.
The third segment, Future, will propose possibilities for how the Bronx could evolve in the next few decades and cope with the pressing needs for housing, green spaces, and transportation. The exhibition will open a competition for young architects to submit proposals for the area. Ten selected projects will receive stipends to produce architectural models that will be displayed at the North Wing gallery during the months of November and December.
