Building of the Day: NYU Bobst Library Special Collections - Group One

This tour will be offered at two times on October 21st: 12-1pm & 1-2pm.

The Special Collections at NYU’s Bobst Library occupies two floors of the eleven-story library, located on the southeast corner of Washington Square Park. Design was inspired by the collections’ content, the building’s location in Greenwich Village and the strong architectural character of Bobst Library, designed by Philip Johnson in the early 70s. The project includes a special collections reading room, galleries, classrooms, curatorial offices and workspaces, and compact material storage systems.

Please note: this tour is accessible by wheelchair.
